Not too easy. Not too difficult.
Course Overview:
The class itself sounded very interesting to me at first, but when I started the class.. it was the complete opposite. This course was supposed to about Aquatic life, hence the name. But, the only thing I've completed in this class were packets, and more packets. I've lost some interest in this subject due to the "need" for all the packets. Wish it was more hands on!
Course highlights:
I have learned about Plate Tectonics, the Hurricane rating system, and much more. The thing is that I've learned about Plate Tectonics just about every year in High School, so it's pretty familiar to me, but I'm ready to dive deeper into the study of Marine life.
Hours per week:
0-2 hours
Advice for students:
Just complete the packets and the powerpoint notes.
Not too easy. Not too difficult.
Course Overview:
I would recomend this course because it is relatively easy you can get all the answers in the book.
Course highlights:
We learned about how lots of things can help or harm the environment and how population also has its turns in playing key role on Earth.
Hours per week:
3-5 hours
Advice for students:
You need a book and a few notebooks and pencils because there's a lot of writing notes and information in labs.
This class was tough.
Course Overview:
I would reccomend this course due to its satisfyingly difficult coursework. I've had an excellent teacher, but regardless of who you have, the material is engaging, an excellent fit for aspiring AP students. Not for the feint of heart, however. This course requires that you study, that you work, but that's part of the beauty in it; it requires that you learn how to take a college level course.
Course highlights:
I've enjoyed organic chemistry in particular. The course in general teaches you college study skills and how to pace yourself, to ask for help and manage your time wisely.
Hours per week:
0-2 hours
Advice for students:
Don't be lazy! Work hard, do the work, make sure you know what's going on. And don't be discouraged. This class is challenging, so be proud that you're taking it!
