Hi all! It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything. School has been a bit crazy lately, and my weekends have been filled with studying for the AP Chemistry test. On that note, let’s get into the post!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I just took the AP Chemistry exam on Thursday, and let me say it was quite an experience.\u00a0 I was nervous for this test, because chemistry was a hard class for me this year, and I\u2019m thankful it\u2019s over with.\u00a0 It is interesting to see how College Board adapted to the situation right now to ensure we could still take our tests, and while I\u2019m not sure how successful they were at making the testing process work for everyone, I managed to submit my work successfully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After talking with my chem class the next day, we realized there were multiple versions of the test; the version I received was deemed the most difficult one. I\u2019m pretty sure that College Board will be scoring these versions differently based on how those who took them performed, so I\u2019m not too upset about taking the hardest version. I think I studied enough for it, and I don\u2019t wish I had done more review. In all honesty, I don\u2019t look at APs as some great, scary, harbinger of doom. To me, its simply a test. If I do well on it, great! I can get out of a college class or test into a higher one, maybe. If I don\u2019t do as well, I am confident in the fact that I did my best, and I won\u2019t put the score on my college application. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
My hope is that I receive a 4 on this exam, and a 5 would be a miracle of a score, but I have no clue how I did points-wise. It\u2019s my understanding that getting about 60% of the available points will get me a 4, but all I can do now is wait and see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019re wrapping up this odd school year with a couple final projects, and one unit math test. All my finals have been cancelled (thank you, teachers!), so I have a pretty light last two weeks. Over the summer, I\u2019m utilizing my free time due to cancelled vacations to take some online classes. I signed up for a free college anatomy class through Carnegie Mellon University, and while it won\u2019t count for any credit or as a class on my transcript, I\u2019m interested in the subject and hope the information will be useful in my AP bio class or later on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m also taking a 2 week medicine course through Wake Forest\u2019s summer online program, and making good use of the now free summer classes my school is offering to get US History out of the way. The summer should be a busy one, and most likely it won\u2019t be much of a break from school, but these last few weeks have felt like a summer of sorts, and I\u2019m anxious to start building a background for college apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s to an interesting next few weeks! See you next time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
