I believe I'm taking:
Either discrete mathematics or BC+ Calculus (Analytical Calculus)
American History
Physics
Biology
Chemistry
Unknown literature class
2(?) electives- Perhaps all about chocolate (yeah thats a class)

Should be a good year (First year in my high school!)

3 Science Classes and BC Calc freshman year? Wow. I want to take all about Chocolate.

 

[timspurfan]

3 days of science for one then cycle to the next science so I take them all throughout the year but they are like a trimester each. All about chocolate is the most popular elective. BC+ is very different from standard BC calculus (says course description). It is very proof based, and I believe they cover integrals, then limits, then derivatives. It is quite different from what you (at least I) learned in AB or BC Calculus. A logic class seems really cool though.

Going into 10th grade. Not sure of my schedule though; haven't gotten it yet. I'll probably post it when I do. Although I do know the classes, just not the hours:
Spanish (Easy, been taking spanish since kindergarden)
Chemistry (Maybe easy, depends on the teacher)
Economics (Not really sure about this one)
Honors English 10 (I hear this is kinda hard, not too terrible though)
A.P Calculus (This might be where things start to get scary)
And one more that I just can't remember.

Lolwut, at my school you have to be a Senior to take Calc unless your a genius and in the gifted program. Even some of the smartest kids in my school had a tough time getting an A. Unless your a mega genius I doubt it will be easy.

At my school you normally have to be a senior to take Calc too, but by this point it doesn't take much convincing for the school to let me do whatever I want. I also shouldn't be in the AP Music Theory course because I've never taken an actual Music Theory class before. :3
Anyway, I learned the Calc AB material in less than a week and a half earlier this summer. Not meaning this in a pretentious way; if you knew me irl, you wouldn't doubt how easy I will find BC

Finallyyyyyy a freshman again.

Will that be you?

So you could tell me d/dx(sec^2(sqrt(x)). Do you find most maths easy, and do you already know that you will find BC calculus to be easy (not trying to troll)?

You only learn like 2 new things in BC.

as long as I'm not being really dumb rn, \( \frac{\sec^2{(\sqrt{x})}\tan{(\sqrt{x})}}{\sqrt{x}} \)

I've found all math that I've bothered trying to this point very easy; it's always been near-100 grade average without putting in real effort (and as a result of not putting in effort of course I make occasional dumb mistakes). As for BC, I already know what the new concepts are, and based on the way I have worked with certain things in the past, I know those concepts won't give me trouble. But ya, like Weston said, it's not that much to learn.

I wish math was that easy for me, it started getting hard for me in Geometry freshman year.

I also think that bc is not much more than AB. I have self taught a lot of it. If BC is going to be easy for you, I would try and push yourself to learn more math.

Thanks for the format.

Going to be a senior. AP Physics, AP Calc, AP Stat, Robotics Independent Study, English H, French.

Pretty decent year.

[I don't think I need to write anything here]

That's an impressive looking list of classes there Patrick!

O ya don't worry bout that, I will def. be learning other random stuffs outside of BC class.

Or maybe during class for that matter; we do have school laptops for a reason, and that reason is obviously to not have to pay too much attention during class


EDIT: Patrick, am jealous of Robotics class.

Hey, at least I'm not in some French class...owait.

Patrick, am jealous of Robotics class.

It's basically doing stuff for our FRC team in school. It's awesome.

you forgot magic class D:<

While we're at it, might as well make a format for people talking about math:

[something about taking some class several grade levels higher]
[i'm not too worried, it's gonna be fun] > trying to imply it's easy without actually saying so
[random difficult-looking problem] > trying to imply i do this kind of thing everyday
[can you do this?] > feel like a boss, think i know everything about calculus

 

[timspurfan]

Wait... that "can you do this" is in mine. Patrick, can you give me some brownie points? I'm confused what kind of magi you took, like the mystical powers magic or rubiks magic? I hear you are pretty good at both.

 

[ZamHalen]

I'm gonna be a junior this year, I'm taking:
AP DE US History
AP Lit
DE Pre-Cal
DE Spanish III(This is going to suck)
Speech
Wildlife(not sure why)
Band
Physics
Yeah can't afford to slack off because of all the duals but I hope it won't be too difficult.I should probably finish my summer reading assignments since I only have two weeks.....anyone have a report on the the canterbury tales written out?
