Benefits Of Choosing An AP Course

Through my high school years, I have taken many challenging academic courses, extracurriculars, and community service. By taking AP classes through high school, I have become more prepared for challenging courses in high school and have become more responsible and independent for challenging work, from these Ap classes, I have become more prepared for Honors College. since sophomore year, I have taken the highest level course available. By being in a regular level course I did not feel as if I was being challenged enough and desired more. The high-level courses challenged me and pushed me further as the more challenging it gets the more prepared I would be for the future. As a highly motivated student, I like to be around other students who

I’m happy to know that Archbishop Williams offers Advanced Placement level classes. I am currently in an Advanced Placement program at Central Middle School. Even though I am doing very well in it, I find the pace and the subject matter very challenging. If I continue to manage my time well, I think this would be the right path for me to prepare for college successfully.

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

I did awful on my final, which was a grammar quiz. After taken this course, I realized Accounting was the field for me! Before I started my program at University of Phoenix I had trouble with proper grammar. I believe I have grown in this area because University of Phoenix offers excellent resource materials and services, such as the library and the lab. I have learned that professionally or personally I have to be proficient in writing. Businesses have to know that they trust that I can put an important document together error free. Another course that impacted my life was MTH208/209. Both of these math courses were not hard however, MTH208 was a refresher algebra course. My high school focused on accounting so I was proficient in this area. I absolutely love math! Both of these courses focus on college algebra. By taking MTH 208/209 I realized how much I have forgotten since high school. This course impacted my decision to progress and earn my master’s in business in accounting. Math is relates to anything an individual does such as scheduling appointments, jotting down milling information, and keeping track of hours worked on a time sheet. My personal, professional, and educational goals will vary for the next five years. After obtaining my bachelors of science in management, I am going to take some time to self-reflect. I will reflect on what I have learned over the past four years at University of Phoenix. After I have

Currently, I am taking four AP classes and one dual class. My workload is difficult, but my morals require my personal best effort. My personal philosophy is that everyone has an innate love for learning, and I have often times found myself exhilarated after finishing a complex problem. Often times, my contemporaries find my love of learning odd, but I know that I can convince their love of learning to show if they just step back and understand how fascinating school truly

Many schools in the country offer students the chance to take Advanced Placement courses. Every student has heard time and time again that taking these courses are necessary to prepare for life after high school. Unfortunately, that claim is not the truth and is being proven to be false each day. AP courses should not be offered at New West because they do not offer the opportunity to go into deep discussion on topics being taught, selective schools such as Dartmouth and Brown are not giving them as much importance, and because the courses affect the quality of the school for the worse.

Why do I want to take an AP class? The reason I decided I want to take AP English is because I wish to expand my knowledge of reading and writing. Furthermore, English has always been my favorite class and I've always been interested in a career connected to the subject. Even more, I have always done extremely well in my other English classes and I feel that I could be very successful taking an AP class. I’m currently enrolled in an honors English class so I am prepared for the next step up. I’m excited to be able to learn more about English and improve my skills as a reader and writer. Not only am I super hardworking, but I also won’t give up. For example, I will be able to complete large amounts of work and difficult assignments. I really

Twenty-six years ago. I began the quest to find the perfect college. As I drove down the driveway of Bay Path College, I knew this was the college I was going to attend. I was drawn to the rural setting, the beautiful campus and the small academic community. My intent for life after high school was to get my associates degree, earn some money, then begin working toward my bachelor degree. In retrospect, I did not possess the confidence or drive needed to be a good student. I struggled for the next couple of years to earn my Associates degree, however was apprehensive to commit to the time or expense it would take to continue my education. After a very long break in schooling, I now approach education with a new mindset and ready to commit

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

I have always felt the need to succeed in school to help me achieve my life goals. The Honors College helps me with this by offering classes that are meant to challenge me and allow me to reach a greater potential. Not only are the classes challenging, but they are offered in a wide variety of subjects so that I can challenge myself in multiple aspects of my education. By studying subjects outside my field of study, I am able to become a more well-rounded, informed citizen. This then allows me to better contribute to society and affect the lives of the people around me. The honors classes are also a wonderful opportunity to really focus on a topic and be able to get more help because the classes are smaller. Going to a large college, it is

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

I’m going to be talking about the following piece ‘More schools opening Advanced Placement courses to all students’ by Teresa Watanabe. Her main stance is that increasing AP courses offered in school is allowing more access to low income students, however some students are taking the courses without fundamental, adequate academic skills needed in order to succeed. I will be focusing on the theme of cultural deficit views to explain the achievement gap. I’ll be critiquing the way AP classes are being offered in a widespread manner nationwide, and I’ll be looking at the concept of academic capital, deficit perceptions related to educational achievement, and the effects of AP courses as an intervening variable. I argue against allowing students

I know that taking as many AP classes as possible will benefit me during college, but I talked to other college students and they told me that AP classes will benefit me depending on my major. I plan to major in Biology and that’s why I want to take time to focus on it during high school.

The starting of 10th grade year, I could tell that it was already going to be a hard class. The previous classes would tell us about Mrs. Jackson who taught US History, and how tough she was. Many people recommended to take Regular US History, but I’ve been taking Pre AP Classes since Junior High, so I decided to keep going. Looking back at what I was told, I wish that I would have listened to what they were saying. The first two weeks, we had our first test over chapters one and two, and without a doubt I flunked because I failed to study. As the months went by, I flunked several other tests no matter how many times I cheated or made an attempt to study, and I also never did the homework because I had the worst attitude towards her class.
