I'm a junior. Last year I took AP Euro, this year I'm taking AP U.S. history, AP Econ., and AP Language. What classes are you guys taking? If anyone is taking any of these classes, ask me for help if you're ever stuck an anything. Chat me or something.

in High school i took IB classes which are like AP classes but a little different

What's the difference? I've heard of them but I have no idea what makes them different from AP classes.

I remember being in one of those back in 5th grade. I haven't been in anything like that since.

i think just in the classes a person will take, anyway i think the end goal is the same for both

Lolwhut? You took a college-level class in 5th grade? Damn bro!

Oh okay, I see nao.

What? Isn't AP just advanced placement? Like anything better than the current grade? o.o

I go to a college prep school so all of my classes are AP

Yeah, it is. But I thought it was meant for high school students only, for college credit. I don't see the point of taking an AP class in elementary school, it would be too hard, and taking the AP test is impossible then.

I'm taking a dual credit Advanced English Composition course through my community college.  It counts for both a high school and college credit.  It is just a regular college course; it is only called advanced comp, because I am taking it in high school.

AP Classes are generally offered only in High School. I took AP US History (Got a 5), AP US Government and Politics (Got a 3, still enough for credit). 

 

Well, I took AP U.S. History last year...I'm taking AP Language this year, and a few other AP classes I'd rather not talk about.

I'm taking AP Calculus and I'm in junior year

Not that strange, in 3rd grade I had the reading level of an 11th grader.

nah man that reading level shit is total BS because I had stuff like that too

it was like some sort of challenge to see if i could get a high level book and read it even if i didn't remember it a month later

classic

 

And anyway, I'm probably going to be taking some APs next year, likely for AP Euro and some high level maths, though it really depends on how I do in my math class for next semester

Technically, I did not take AP classes in high school.  My calculus class was structured like an AP class, because my teacher had teached AP calculus classes in the past.  I also took the AP Chemistry test.  I got a 5 on the Calculus AB AP test and a 4 on the Chemistry test.

What is AP?

 

Edit: Different continent, we have a different schooling system.

It's basically an advanced placement course you can take in high school so that you could knock out some college classes. (e.g. if you took "AP Calculus" and passed the standardized test at the end of a year with at least a 3 out of 5, you'd get college credit hours for it.)Anyway, I didn't take any AP classes until senior year - AP Calculus and Music Theory. I barely passed the Calculus one, but I got a 4 on the Music Theory one, which I kind of feel proud of since I was the only one in our class who passed it (keeping in mind that both our band teacher was terrible at teaching it and that there was only 3 other people with me lol).

Ahh

Well we don't offer those in my school but I am doing a course in collaboration with a University, I attend Uni every Friday and get extra UCAS points towards the end

I was never smart enough for AP classes, or interested in them.  I guess you folks are smarter than when I was in high school, though considering how I was, it's not much to brag about.

Currently in AP US History, AP Music Theory, Chamber Orchestra (count's as an AP class), AP English, and AP Physics. I would of gone into AP Spanish but then I realized I hated Spanish so I dropped it before the year started.
