Ap Program For Me

Someone once said, “Strength doesn’t come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming the things you once thought you couldn’t.” I use to think that I couldn’t take AP because it was too difficult. But I’m willing to prove to myself and others that just because something is considered hard, doesn’t automatically mean it’s not for you or that you’re going to fail. I want to take AP Biology because I want to challenge myself, of the benefits, and for the experience. I believe that hard work comes with great rewards that are life changing.

The reason why I took this course was because I felt like technology has definitely influenced this world on a larger scale than previously imagined. If you look in our ordinary lives, you will see products of technology and computing. Everyday objects like iPhones, calculators, even cars are being born out of programming and computing. The scale of this mass technological improvement is also a reason why I am taking AP computer science. If you think about it, just a century ago computing was just an idea, having machines complete everyday tasks. Now if you fast forward to our time, right now, once massive computers have shrunk down

The band program means a lot to me because it has helped me become more outgoing and friendly to people. It has also helped me gain much more of an interest towards all things music. When I was a kid I always wanted to be a teacher, but I never knew what I wanted to teach. When I joined band and attended different music classes, I became interested in something that meant little to me at the time. During my time in band it became much more clear to me that I wanted to pursue music education. The band program means a lot to me because it made me who I am today and I hope to help someone find themselves through music like I

I believe I should be enrolled into AP history, because I need to be able to take the next stepin high school. I think if I take this course, I will be prepared for the hard work and time that I will have to invest if I want to be a good student. This class is also an opportunity for me to better myself at studying for tests, because tests have always been my weakness and I believe this class could really get me to the point where I am studying a week in advance. I think that I deserve to be in AP history, because I went from being a student who couldn’t even get on Honor Roll in 7th grade, to a student who has been on High Honor Roll in 8th grade. If I hope to continue to make academic strides in school then I think that AP history will help

Senior year was quickly approaching and I still had one more spot left. I was indecisive about what other class I should add into my schedule. I researched a little and decided on AP Psychology. Little did I know how much I would come to enjoy the subject. From the beginning, I was interested in the psychology. Studying the way the brain works and why people behave the way they do have been topics I’ve been curious about before. Psychology is a subject unlike any other that I’ve studied before. Psychology studies the human mind and behaviors. It provides answers or theories of why people behave certain ways. It also includes bits of biology and and statistics, so the knowledge in other subjects help me understand it more. As I learn more about

I am not the kind of person that backs down from a challenge. When I was offered to take AP Psychology I already knew I'd be taking two other AP classes. I knew from personal experiences that AP classes came with stress and a lot of rigorous work. It didn't take long for me to come up with an answer: “I'd love to take AP Psych.”

I have taken or plan to take all advanced placement classes my high school offers. Attending a small high school (approximately 350 students) limits me because I can only take the few course offerings related to the medical field. Through sports and clubs I have had keep my grades up to work with diverse personalities for a common goal. I have had to learn through leadership roles in organizations to complete service learning projects through National Honor Society or write a speech for Student Council. All the learning that occurs through my experiences not only the classroom but also on the court, while on a fieldtrip or during a meeting will better prepare me for my future goals at University of

There are many reasons why I want to be in AP United States History. I really enjoy history classes and was recommended by Mr. Walterbach to take the class. When taking Pre-AP World History freshman year, I felt like I was confident in the class and understood the material. Plus, I received an A for both semesters. I decided that if I could handle Pre-Ap World History and felt that it was easy, I could handle AP United States History.

This school year, I decided to join AP Calculus AB. It was tough for me to decide if I should join or not, especially since I'm going to be taking an AP course. I knew it will be more challenging than basic calculus, and instead of taking math for one semester only, I'll have AP Calc for the whole school year. After days of contemplating, I

The classes that have been observed and that will be analyzed in this essay are the English Honors and AP English courses which took place at Cerritos High School during the second semester of the academic year 2015/2016. This analysis will focus on the instructor of said classes, David Hind, and on their curriculum, specifically on how the assessment of the students’ learning took place.

I am an academic thrill seeker; I search out and thrive in fast-paced, high-octane learning experiences. In these situations, I am able to test and tweak my creative and critical thinking skills, fine-tuning my learning styles and methods. It was for this reason that I chose to pursue AP courses,

If I had the chance to explain my choice in APUS for a college to my younger self, I would give them the three biggest factors that helped me decide. Those factors are the convenience of online classrooms versus in person, the ability to work at a pace that doesn't interfere with my full time job, and to help further my professional

When i was in eighth grade,teachers and students from my current high school came to visit my middle school to talk to me about the Anteater Academy. What this academy does is,it helps students prepare themselves to go to a four year university. They do this by having students challenge themselves by taking difficult honor and AP courses starting freshman year. I guess you can say that ever since i was in middle school i knew i wanted to go to college. Being in the academy for about 4 years now has been a challenging journey but, has made my pathway to college easier. This academy taught me how to be responsible,dedicated and confident. There was times where i felt the pressure of having so many AP classes in my schedule but i was surrounded

Based on my researches and observe, I realized that I needed to change the current situation and take some AP courses so I was capable of competing with others. I took their advice and took three AP courses in my Junior year. It was challenging for me to manage those difficult courses at the beginning, but I tried my best to get used to those courses in order to have a good profile for the application. I learned from each failure and adjusted my learning strategy.

Participating in the ACE program will aid in achieving personal goals that I have set for myself throughout my educational life in many ways. First of all, my family doesn’t have the required resources to pay for my college tuition, so my alternative is to apply for scholarships or student loans. I am aware that student loans will be difficult to pay off later on, as colleges tend to charge a fortune. Participating in the ACE program, which is free, will help me get ahead in my college education, by reducing my tuition. I aspire to set an example for my younger siblings who look up to me. Being the first generation from my family to graduate from college will einsure this. I wish to show them that graduating from college is the best feeling
