English

[Celsion]

FINALLY a thread to rant about what I hate about english.

Is it me or do most math people hate english?

AP exam is *shudders*, although I did a get an 8(AP scale) on an essay the other day.

Ah, the joy of not taking any AP tests this year. :D

(I'm going to Caltech next year...and they don't accept any AP credit. So it's rather pointless for me to waste money on the tests.)

[Celsion]

Nice, very nice. I have to take 4 AP tests this year, but the school district pays for everyone's AP tests.

[Kurt]

Wow! We have to pay for all of ours. I dished out like $300 last year on AP tests. :(

[Celsion]

But to get the GPA bump you have to score at least a 2, I think, not just take the test.

[Kurt]

Hmm, our school gives a 5.0 for all pre-AP/AP/post-AP classes (for an A), regardless of whether or not you take the test.

The only incentive we have to take the AP tests (beyond the obvious benefits), is exemption from finals in that subject.

[Celsion]

You're exempt from trimester exams only if you're a junior or senior and maintain a B in that class. We're moving to semesters next year. So everyone's schedules are messed up.
