Q: (Initially posted July 26, 2004) FROM STUDENT
MEMBER AYUSHI R. IN TX
This is my first year taking Advanced Placement courses. Can
any one give me any idea what it is going to be like? I have
heard from other people that it will be really hard... research
papers everyday, and stuff like that. I feel like they are just
scaring me. So, I want to hear from the mentors and other students
who have taken AP courses at different schools. |

A: FROM MENTOR BRENDA WOLFE
IN CO
It has been many years since I took AP classes - but the workload
was not that bad. I was still able to participate in sports
and band. Just because the classes cover harder material does
not mean that the work load should double. Science and math
always have homework anyway so there really is no difference.
AP History was a litle more reading - but no a lot of research
paprs.
I would suggest you talk directly with the teachers who will
be instructing these classes to see what their plan is.
