Creative Blog #5: The AP expirience

This was my first year taking AP classes and for the most part it wasn't too bad. First semester I felt like my head was going to explode from all the reading and memorization I had to do for both AP Gov and AP Enviro. I really didn't think I would be able to handle all the stress that came from taking college level courses. But around 4th quarter, I proved to myself that I could actually do it.
I think the worst part about APs is actually STUDYING for the AP test. Actually taking the test is the easy part. You get to show up in free dress and miss all of your classes. It's pretty nice. Especially the feeling of freedom and relief once you've finished the test.
I'm so glad I didn't push myself to fill my schedule with really challenging classes. I had a decent amount of classes that challenged me and a decent amount of classes that were super easy for me *cough*french*cough*
I'm also proud of myself for seeing both of my AP classes to the bitter end. I'm pretty sure I passed both of my APs so hopefully I'm exempt from taking certain classes in college.
