Author Topic: High school accidentally put me in honors classes, lol  (Read 2568 times)

So yeah, my high school kind of forgeted up and put me in honors classes.
Judging by last year's report card, I am pretty sure I'm not honors.
However, science is pretty easy and interesting in honors- i don't think I'm going to have trouble with that.
Global teacher seems like a good teacher, don't think I'll have any issues.
For the other classes I think I'll do fine.
So, should I stay or should I go? (lel song) Would it look good on my resume or something?



Honors class are the fun ones. People are actually interested in whats going on and if you have the mind for it you can get pretty interested in whats going on too. Sure, the work can be harder, and sometimes boring, but would you rather be constantly challenged or just sitting there waiting for the day to end?

I think this will turn out hilariously bad judging from your past forum posts and idiocy.

I'm in honors L.A./English but I have merit Math :l

(note I'm in MS 8th grade, not HS yet)

challenged, definitely
i'm not really worried about honors, i'm just asking for your opinions and if this will be good on my resume

Funny that you say honors is easy in science; I've had the exact opposite experience
All of my science classes have been hellish

and yeah good on your resume is kind of exactly how it works

i'm taking living environment, when we actually learned some life science in other grades before lol
the little paper the teacher gave us (forgot it's name) said that we would be learning about cells, mitosis, miosis, laboratory skills, and other stuff like that, when we actually learned a lot about this in grade school

challenged, definitely

Honors classes can lead to AP courses which can lead to a better college that admits you, which can lead to a good job, so it really depends on how much work you want to put in now.

I'm going to try a lot more than I did last year. Procrastination is such a bitch in life.

I've heard from many upperclassmen and even a few teachers that few of the top tier colleges (most Ivy League schools) actually accept AP scores as college credits. Still nice to do them though, AP European History was one of the best classes I ever took.

I took AP classes to be with friends and to not have to suffer through regular classes. Didn't utilize the scores to skip classes here at university, but I did submit them to get into more advanced versions of the regular first semester classes.

My academy is science and mathematics based so both of those courses are always honors/advanced.

Depends on the teacher whether it's terrible or not.

The opposite was for me. I had an Honor English class freshman and sophomore year. The teacher for the sophomore year was a pretty bad teacher, and pretty all the students in there bullstuffed their papers. My essays were bad, as far as all my English teachers were concerned they just gave me the points for just turning something in.

Some of the best classes I had was an ROP criminal justice class, and just normal non-honors/ap classes.

you americans and your weird school system. i still dont understand what this AP or honor thing is or how a 70 is a failing grade
