AP US History Exam

I'm taking this big guy on Friday. Anyone else taking it?

 

I was gonna take APUSH next year, but I changed my mind, so I BSed the entry exam. and I actually almost got in. I needed 8 pts to get in, I got 7.

 

Back in my day, there was no such thing as the AP US History exams!srsly.

 

I decided not to take it, I suck at history I can't remember everything I've learned for two years of history.

 

there is no AP US history at my school

What does AP stand for? I'm too Canadian to understand your acronyms

Back when I took it, that sh*t was easy compared to how hard my teacher made it sound.I had a C all year in AP US History because I never tried, and ended up getting a 4 on the exam even though I didn't study at all.

You just have to find a place where they give the exam.

You have your regular courses, which are the equivalent to "academic" courses in Canada. You have honors courses, which teach things at a faster pace. You have Advanced Placement (AP) courses that give exams for college credit.

The crappiest part to taking an AP class is the work you have to do over the summer. I don't know if that's still the case but I took one in high school. And dropped it.
