There is no going back now 2012-02-09 14:55:23 Reply

Well, scheduling happened today... I am going to be a Junior next year, and I was told that I'm 1 of 3 Sophomores that are taking a risk as big as I am. I will be taking the MAX number of classes. My classes will be a mixture of honors and AP classes. I will not have a lunch period. I am also supposed to test out of the next math class, bumping me up to the math class after that. And the best part is that I am now officially registered for all of this shit so I can't change my mind.
~there goes my free time. :D


I have a strong personality, so bite me.

I really hope you're not one of those douchey, lame, "I'm better than everyone else" nerds I'm stuck in an AP class full of.


I'm a single father and a multimillionaire.

If you want to brag about taking risks go jump off a building and survive.

Now that's cool.

He's got a point. That would be pretty cool.

Ummm, I've done that. Twice actually. The first time I ended up sliding down the side of a wall which slowed down my momentum. The second time I ended up jumping into a lamppost so that also cushioned it I suppose. Still bloody hurt both times.

If this is what you want to do then good for you. I did something similar and regret it. I'm in as shit position as everyone else and I wasted my school time studying rather than having fun.

I took 13 or 14 AP classes when I was in high school, if I recall.

Passed all the exams of course. Made it easy to get into college, to be honest.

Don't you just hate it when you grab a chocolate chip cookie, take a bite, and then you realize that those "chocolate chips" were raisins? That's the worst, man...

lmao. I'd prefer to take easier classes but I'm not a rich fuck that can afford college without scholarships.

If college is your goal, then taking the max number of credits may not be your best bet - more and more, colleges are looking beyond one's course load and GPA to an applicant's activities, employment and athletic achievement outside of the classroom - to make sure you are a "well-rounded" person.

If you spend all of your time on your classwork, you may appear one-dimensional to college admissions officers - and remember that you need to be accepted before you can worry about getting a scholarship.

You may want to eat during one of your classes if you want to do well in it... otherwise you might fail.
Have you talked to any of your teachers to see if you could eat during their class? You need at least one. Remember, you're not an uber machine that doesn't need to eat. We all have flaws... including our digestive systems.


You can't know what you don't know if you can only use yourself as a reference point.

I already arranged that yeah. I will be able to choose what period of the day I eat lunch which is kinda cool. but eating and learning at the same time is kinda weird

I think the point is that many colleges accept high AP test scores as college credit, so if he takes enough AP classes, he'll be able to shave a semester, maybe even a year, off college costs. I know a few people who did that.

But as far as bragging rights go, I started college at 15 so all y'all bitches can suck my dick.

Yeah, who needs eating when you have education?

Holy shit, though, dude. I'm going into the IB program and even I'm not as willing do to things as you are.
