HS is a joke...

I (and most college students I know) can agree there.

Big tough junior is too good for high school?

It really is a joke though. I rarely did more than 1.5 hours of work a night (usually it was maybe 45 minutes) during junior year and got 4 As and two Bs.

I didn't study except run through flash cards twice for the APUSH exam and got a 4. I didn't study at all for the AP English Lit exam and got a 4. I didn't study at all for my Spanish SATII or US History SAT II and got a 760 and 780, respectively.

edit: Blademaster's advice is off though. You should do well in high school to get into a good college. Or, if you don't initially get into a good college, to boost your chances of being able to transfer to one. Unless you prefer to go the route of trade school, which even then I'm pretty sure requires decent grades to show you're not a lazy bastage.

My class didn't even follow the AP curriculum (it's not marked as AP on our transcripts) and it was still enough to prep me for the AP exam. Same with our school's English Lit course.

Yeah, a lot of the AP kids told me that the test was ridiculously easy.

I'm doing AP US Politics + Gov next year though. Our summer reading is only 6 federalist papers. Really not that bad.

I'm still deciding on whether to go into Flight or Poli Sci ---> Law, so all of this could mean jack shit eventually (if I go into flight).

go for a PhD. in aeronautical science

lulz, the most bullshit sounding PhD ever if you ask me; but what do i know, i'm just an engineer

wouldn't that take more than 4 years?

i'm probably going right into the military after college with the way things are shaping up

right now my top colleges are probably: Pace (my girlfriend's friend can get an apartment and all 3 of us would live there and split the rent) in NYC, AU in DC (longshot but hey, who knows what could happen) and ERAU in Daytona as you know.

I really don't even fucking know tbh, I'll see how things go when I really start flying intensively in the next few weeks. I kinda lost interest at points throughout the year, but probably because 95% of what we did was textbook work.

Lol, you claim high school is joke while also stating that you didn't take a difficult class because you didn't want to get a C. If high school was really as easy as you want to claim it is, you would have been able to take APUSH without problems. Nice attempt at sounding cool, but you ultimately fail.

Hurricane, have you gotten your AP scores yet?

lol k

pace, alma mater of my brother and sister

YOU CAN'T ESCAPE ME WHEREVER YOU GO ('cept american)

yeah but then Hurricane's right there so it's one of you two

fuckin' hell.

how's Pace? I really haven't been able to get that much info on it but it seems okay. i don't really think they have a strong Poli Sci program..

I love the 'lol k' response. Grow the fuck up and stop trying to be cool. It just makes you look like an immature kid who is desperate for attention.

lol k

your mom should've swallowed you

@Nuk, those were the only APs I took. This year my only AP course was Environmental Science and the class didn't require you to take the AP. I probably could've done the Spanish AP. Eh. Underachievement... but I can't change the past.

Oh, so you took no AP tests this year? How was APES, too? I've heard its really boring.

At first it's boring, but it picks up. A lot of it depends on the labs you do... if you have fun labs it's a fun class. Our teacher was also pretty cool.

i hated AP spanish, avoid, AVOID

also, the native speakers tend to have slight issues with that class becuase they tend to use their native slang, which the AP board frowns upon
