Yay Mock AP Exams... And the Real Things

Hello everyone! I've decided to post again, this time about the fun topic of... school!

Yes, that's right, today is all about school. Well, I'll probably digress as I go along, but it will mostly (read: might) be about school.

Anyway, as you may well know, AP (Advanced Placement) exams start next week and go through the week after. I have four AP exams this year, and would like to do well on them. I have two next week, and two in the week after, so I've got quite a bit of studying to do. I'll probably have posts about each exam on the day I take it, and those ought to be good, as I'll either be half asleep because the exams are so boring or I'll be nervous to the power of pie (I do mean pie, as opposed to the number pi). So yeah, be sure to read those because they'll be filled with extra rambling.

Now to be a little more specific... Next week, I've got US Government and Politics on Monday. Now this is one I'm not looking forward to, because I don't really like government. While the teacher is nice, I just don't get half of the stuff because they make up words. Yes, some of the vocabulary was not in the MS Word spellchecker, which means they MADE IT UP! Stinkin' politicians... And of course, I did horribly on the mock exam that we took this week (2 out of 5, although she didn't grade it the AP style, even though it probably wouldn't have made a difference) (Oh yeah, that's how AP does it, your composite score is out of 5)

Next, on Thursday, is Calculus AB. This one isn't that bad, because we just took a mock exam like a week or two ago and I got a 5 on it (go me!). So hopefully I'll do well on it, because I understand it pretty well, and I like calc.

Next is... PHYSICS! RUNNN!!!! Can you tell I don't like physics? The problem with it is that you have to know so much stuff... and most of it is totally unrelated, except that it can be covered by the B R O A D category of physics. Hopefully I'll remember everything, although it will be quite hard to do. I'm going to be doing a LOT of studying for this one. Oh yeah, it's on Monday of the week after, so at least I've got the weekend.

Finally, I have English Language & Composition. This will be rather difficult, simply because I have never done incredibly well in English, although I've done fine (Mostly A's, but still, I don't get it). Rhetorical strategies and such are hard to remember, so hopefully I can do ok on it. This is the longest exam, so be sure to read its entry, as it will be most fun to write about the 4+ hour exam.

So, that's my exam schedule. I'll try to keep you all updated on it, so be sure to check back every once in a while because these posts will be worth reading, and will hopefully be a bit of fun.

Oh yeah, welcome Jeremy to the Insane Writing Team (henceforth known as the IWT, so I don't have to type out the name every time. Remember it, or I'll eat you (or your first born)), once he replies the invitation. I hope he can fill in if I miss a day or something. Oh right, I know I posted this the day after the last post, but don't expect them to be that close together usually, unless we get more writers. However, I'll try to keep at least 2 or 3 coming a week.

Peace,
Bryan
