Navigating Age Differences in College: A Freshman and Senior Perspective Entering into relationships with noticeable age or academic year differences can often lead to questions and concerns. One such scenario you might encounter is the dynamic between a freshman and a senior in college. Is this pairing acceptable? The short answer is yes, provided that […]
I’m really struggling with physics right now. Honestly, I’m not even sure why I signed up for this AP class. I had a feeling it would be challenging, but nothing seems to click for me. The notes feel like they’re written in a different language, and every concept just goes over my head. What’s worse […]
Feeling pretty overwhelmed right now! The sophomore slump is definitely hitting hard, and my addiction to R6 Siege isn’t making things any easier (and I’m still stuck in copper). To all you 4.0 GPA achievers out there, how do you manage to keep up and actually get good grades? I could really use some advice!
Your junior schedule looks quite robust! Here’s my breakdown:
English: English 11 L5 – Great choice! It’s solid preparation for college-level coursework, especially considering it’s an accelerated class.
Math: Pre Calc L4 – A wise decision to take Pre Calc at the honors level, as it will set you up well for calculus in your senior year.
Science: Chem L4 and AP Bio – Excellent combination! AP Bio will be challenging but rewarding, and having Chem at the honors level will complement your understanding of the material.
History: US History II L4 – Another strong choice! History at the honors level will deepen your understanding of important events and themes.
French: French IV L4 – Continuing your language studies at the honors level is impressive and beneficial for college applications.
Electives: VHS AP Physics 1 or AP Environmental – Both AP courses are great options! AP Physics may be more math-intensive, whereas AP Environmental can be more interdisciplinary. Choose based on your interests and career goals.
Overall, I’d rate your schedule very high! You’ve balanced rigorous courses with a good mix of subjects, which will present a well-rounded profile to colleges. Good luck!
