I also had a somewhat tough AP English Language and Composition teacher in 12th grade. For starters, I had to read 25 to 30 pages at home on average a day (which took me 30 to 35 minutes a day[I try to read carefully]). In addition, I had to doing reading plus reading comprehension, writing or vocabulary homework (some of the esoteric 12th grade vocabulary words I learned in that class were: deleterious, esurient, surreptitious, colloquial, conflagration, sybarite, venerable, idiosyncrasy, panacea, penurious, etc.). In other words, I spent nearly an hour on AP Language and Composition class at home nearly everyday. Furthermore, for essays, he was strict on formatting (usually he wanted either MLA or APA or Chicago formatting), page count (first essay was 4-5 pages and the final essay/research paper was 7-8 pages), sources for research papers (he does not want us to use Wikipedia or any source similar to Wikipedia or use any kind of corporate news media as sources), and submission time (if you were late to class and handed your essay to the teacher, he is going to mark 10 percentage points off your essay and this was the first offense). Second offense, he will not accept the essay and you get a zero. Third offense, and you fail the class. Plus, for 4-6 page essays, he gave us 2-3 days to write. For 7-8 page essays, he gave us 4-5 days to write. I learned a lot from my English Language and Composition teacher's class and it did prepare me for college.

As a lit student I’m feeling this hard with exam day approaching. I was expecting the class to be like 40% nonfiction and 60% fiction and mostly based around how to dissect and construct stories along with general improvements on your ability to write. Instead it’s mostly been some short stories with a lot of poems mixed in, almost all of which have been fiction, the only one which wasn’t being a poem I was allowed to choose for an essay. Don’t get me wrong, I like reading and I got a 5 on the language exam but the shear volume of anachronistic stories and specifically poems is ridiculous. The poems specifically tend to be very subjective in their meaning and tone and it can often lead to really conflicting opinions on a text, and if your option doesn’t align with a test maker’s you’re screwed. The best example of this I can think of is the poem I chose for one of my essays, “the Foggy Dew”, by Charles O’Neill. “The Foggy Dew” can and has been interpreted to have two VERY different meanings over its one hundred year existence, as either an incredibly solemn poem focusing on the loss of a failed rebellion, or as a hyped up nationalist call to arms to rebel against colonial rule. Both interpretations are correct but only one can effectively be put on a testing sheet and so if you choose one your wrong on the other. I’ve seen this for plenty of poems in the class thus far and I honestly view it as somewhat stupid especially since many of these poems are from a time before we had standardized writing and so the older forms of English and writing needlessly complicate things on top of the already difficult material. I spoke to one of my former AP teachers, who also happens to teach 12th grade English, and she wasn’t surprised at the volume of older works but openly voiced he discontent at it alongside mine. It’s not a good way to get kids interested in the subject and it actively turns them away and I can say from personal experience that I haven’t gained much as a writer from this class that I didn’t already learn through independent reading or through AP English language which did a much better job at what AP Lit fails to do. The class is far to archaic and that makes it needlessly difficult in what should be a relatively easy subject. Kids wouldn’t have a problem taking an AP course like this if they could analyze modern rap songs, movies, and TV shows. Writing has evolved since the days of Shakespeare and we don’t need to rely on stage plays and poems to teach kids when they’re already 400 years ahead of it.

My best advice is to take the AP classes with content that you're actually interested in and want to learn. I chose AP Macro over AP World this year for my social studies class- partly because everyone in my school was freaking out about how hard World is, but also because I knew I needed some sort of economics course and I love geography (not history; there's a difference) and math. Turns out that MacroEcon is a hard class and my grades are lower for me (Gifted Kid™️) but it's rewarding at the end and I enjoy the content so far. As a side note- AP Stats is a breeze for me.

took CSA, Calc BC, Mech C as an international indian student in sophomore year, trust me, these are so easy for indians because if you're preparing for competitive exams, the questions would be god level easy for you, finished early in all of these, got all 5s, regretting not giving chem!!

I’ve also heard music theory is incredibly difficult. The tests are apparently like… 6 hours long? And you have to have multiple music credits to get into the class.

it’s closer to the language classes than any other. there’s 75 MC, half are aural (listening) and the other are non aural. then there’s 9 FRQs, the first four being different types of dictation (you hear something then have to write it), then 3 composition ones, then 2 sight singing. done one. by. one. you have to have prior musical knowledge to even understand the basics of the class. and most colleges don’t even take the credit, even if you get a 5. that shit is crazy man

It’s definitely one of the “upper level” AP classes. It’s hard even for those with a music background because most high schoolers are not that conscious of their ear. (Which is a way of saying most people can’t really hear stuff they think of and then get that out into physical space) I took it senior year and got a 5 but only because I took college theory and jazz harmony at the same time and even before. That’s kinda the hard part, the average high school musician regardless of skill on their instrument will still probably fail The majority of non-musicians will fail. It’s an incredibly unfair course but it’s a great class for those who want to go into music as a major and have a better than most grasp.

AP Chem was living hell, but it made chemistry in undergrad so much easier. I also had a former college professor of biochemistry at my HS (long story). Anyways he taught both preAP and AP Chem and most people hated him, but after a while you could tell he really cared. He said if you can pass my class you’ll pass everything that comes your way. Hell even some of the people who failed his class went onto do better later. He said I want you all to focus on learning more than a grade. Albeit he had a policy of in the preAP chem class if you got below a 80% then he wanted a conference with your parents. He did that on every exam. A lot hated that of course cause it’s embarrassing, but he really wanted to help us. He even said I could care less if my students dislike me if I can get them to be successful then that makes it all worth it. I can’t thank him enough I still keep in touch with him due to grad school and he always asks how well I’m doing. Also his personality is kind of like a toned down Rick Sanchez so outside of school he was cool to talk to.

It also depends on the student's reading and writing level. If anyone did well on the SAT and/or ACT reading and writing, then AP Language and maybe AP Literature is going to be a breeze for them. Also, at my high school, high school seniors can take AP Language as a substitute for AP Literature or regular 12th grade English. I know I got a C+ in AP Language and Composition but I got a 2 on the AP exam in my senior year. Books that I read in my senior year for my AP Language and Compositon class: "Moby Dick" by Herman Melville, "Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley, "Walden" by Henry David Thoreau, "In Cold Blood" by Truman Capote, "Robinson Crusoe" by Daniel Defoe and "On writing: A Memoir of the Craft" by Stephen King.

I ended up having to cram seven units worth of information in just three weeks cause I didn't allocate my time well enouugh and didn't have enough time to solve as much practice problems as I wanted to. I don't know how well I did, I might have passed, since I did have a pretty good understanding of the content by the end of that three week cram session but it was absolute hell. I feel lucky that I was able to comprehend a good majority of the questions at all. If your college major has nothing to do with science or chem, just drop the course.

You need to be able to memorize them and apply them as you see fit. On top of these procedures, you need to make the music fit with the time signature, the key signature, follow proper chord progression guidelines, invert/change the standard arrangement of chords, etc. etc. These things are also taught in the class, but you're expected to have prior knowledge about some of them. The exam consists of general questions, music-writings, audio excerpts which you have to answer questions based on, like what kinds of procedures were used and whatnot, and there is even a "sight-singing" section where you are given a sheet of written music and you have to sing it right then and there, without an instrument.

I only took one AP class, and it was AP music theory. One thing that we had to do was to learn all the different intervals (ascending and descending) by ear, and we were tested on it. So, they’d play two notes, one after the other, and you’d have to know what the gap was between the two notes. I would spend so much time in the computer lap using the Aurelia program (this was in 2006-2007) just listening and practicing over and over that listening skill. We also had to write 4-part music with the correct chord progressions with NO PARALLEL FIFTHS. And we had to be able to sight read and sing for the AP exam, which wasn’t a big deal for me since I have a choir background, but people in my class who were in band or orchestra were less confident about it. It was hard, but I learned so much about music.

Took German in high school all four years and AP in my senior year. I had a really great teacher and I had a pretty solid grasp of the language at that point so it was mostly easy for me. The most difficult part is sticking with it and applying yourself. Not everyone was able to pick it up as easily as I was however… In German 3 I knew students who always struggled. One dude I knew was a nice guy but for his sanity, I hoped that he wouldn’t try for another year. His lack of progress would have made German AP increasingly more difficult unless he studied twice as hard as everyone else *at least.* My best piece of advice for learning any language is, “Nothing will stop you being creative more effectively as the fear of making a mistake.” -John Cleese. The students who were least afraid to make mistakes often did the best. And boy was my guy afraid to make mistakes.

You forgot AP Human Geography, it is the PINNACLE of easy. I took it tenth grade year because I didn’t get into AP Psych since the seniors and juniors are prioritized for placement. Ofc, I had just gotten out of Pre AP WORLD geography and I didn’t want to take another geography class back to back but it was actually the BEST idea ever! I got a 5 on the exam, it is rediculously easy

I didn't do AP because it'd be too hard for me and I know I will fail. Also I was actually in special ed classes and had some great teachers. One was a class we rarely did class work but when we did we had fun with it. Had to be polite and had to day yes sir or yes ma'am. We also could do work from other classes if needed to.

Don’t let the difficulty of AP Physics C scare you. If your school has a good teacher like mine did, I think you’ll be ok. Personally, AP Physics C was my favorite class in high school. Each question is like a little puzzle to solve, and it’s actually pretty fun.

even if you dont do well you will have a huge head start in college. physics 2 is essentially just e&m and mechanics helps with statics, physics 1, and dynamics. if you want to do any form of engineering i strongly advise you take it.

AP music theory is really one of the only APs on this list that just basically rely on how knowledgeable and familiar you are with music to determine if you do well. like someone with 8 years experience on piano and violin as well as being an established vocalist is going to have an easier time than joe the guitar player who thought it would be an easy class.

As someone who is a sophomore as of this comment and took the new AP Precalc, I would rank it as hard because it is essentially honors class but they expect you to not only find what values xyz is, but they require you to manipulate or envision problems that can look very complicated. It is mostly preparation for AP calculus BC because the content has complex approaches and if done well, this class can prepare you for Calculus BC for what it will throw at you. For me, it has been easy for the most part since the content from semester 1 and parts of semester 2 is going well but the things we’re learning now is complicated and will demand equations to be made to know how to approach these problems. And considering others, it takes a lot to solve these problems so while I like math, overall it can be difficult if you don’t pay attention. I have not taken the AP exam yet but from what I know, we will not be able to have a reference sheet to know equations so we do have to study and remember them.

For some reason I found AP Bio to be a lot easier than AP Stats, bio was much more interesting and engaging for me which is probably why it absorbed easier or something

@@UniqueRaliefor me, who had a really easy time in the class due to the lack of teaching by my teacher all year, the exam was very tough. I’ve never been all that interested in biology either. However, I ended up getting a 4 on the exam, which was definitely not the score I thought I was going to get. The difficulty of the class is very dependent on the teacher (in my case, it was an easy class but it screwed most of us over), so it might be worth your while asking people who have already taken the course at your school specifically what the class is like. :)

I think AP world history is a lot harder than you say it is especially if you have only taken AP HUG or no AP classes before. It also depends on the teacher. The reasons for this are that if your teacher doesn’t really teach you how to do SAQ’s, DBQ’s, and LEQ’s (like mine) then the test is gonna be terrible, plus it just depends on if you have a good teacher or not. I just took the final test for it today and let’s just say that LEQ was not looking too good lol

If you can write decently well, can comprehend most parts of short stories and poems, and have taken AP Lang, Lit really is not that bad. You just need to read two or three books that are very easy to write about.

Also, being someone that is taking AP Art (Drawing) this year, it’s not simply drawing. It’s being able to investigate some sort of theme through art all with a relatively competent and personalized style. It makes it more difficult but you definitely learn a lot. I sucked at portraits so I made my portfolio surround them and it has lead to major improvements in such.

I say AP Chemistry should be in the Send Prayers list or in the drop out list. If anyone have good math skills and did well on high school chemistry, it would be send prayers for those people. If not, then definitely drop out from this class and take General Chemistry in college. I would also put AP Biology in the Send Prayers or in the drop out list. If you did well in high school biology and high school chemistry, I would send prayers for you. If not, then drop out or do not take the equivalent of this class until college. I had a friend who said his first semester of college biology was the equivalent of AP Biology in one year.

I would definitely put AP Lang in the drop out section, especially for my school. I’m taking both AP Chem and Physics C Mech, and they are not even close to the difficulty of AP Lang here.

AP statistics was probably the easiest math class I took. Super easy to understand it was just the homework that killed me. Everyday i would have to do 12 questions and each question had an a, b and c section. It would end up filling up like 4 notebook pages front and back. Also took both AP lit and AP Lang and gotta say it really wasn't too hard. I think our teachers really helped us out with it tho and made us understand everything. All of my essays for these classes would come out minimum at a 85%. But for our mock essays for the AP exam I would get like a 2 or 3😭. Would not recommend AP lang/lit but would definitely recommend AP statistics.

I took the class this year, and it is my favorite class Ive ever taken. I did have a good teach and test wasn't even thag difficult.

As someone who has taken APES. It was WAY harder to pass than AP research but I’d honestly say it depends on the school. For APES, my school gave out 20 page study guides due by the end of the week along with detailed problems from the real world that you would have to solve. Not the easiest class and I wouldn’t recommend it to people who aren’t interested in that field.

I’m required to take a buttload of AP classes for this program I’m in to stay in the school. Love how you listed most of them in dropout.

Took Seminar, apparently my teacher was a former college professor who did things “a bit differently” I had to spend the whole year struggling due to the strict curriculum in that class. I slept an average of 3 hours while taking that class and I actually celebrated after the AP exam cause I never had to be bothered by it again.
