Choosing classes next year(APUSH) help & advice please?!?

I am an oncoming junior :[


I am considering taking AP U.S History, but the thing is, this will be the only AP class I will take, along with three other honors classes.


Is AP US History hard?(I heard it is) Should I take a risk %26amp; go for it?





Also, How is Chemistry Honors, is it manageable?


I heard it's a lot of math, but will I be able to understand it along with taking Alg 2 Honors at the same time?





THANKS(: !Choosing classes next year(APUSH) help %26amp; advice please?!?
I'm also an incoming Junior and I will be taking APUSH and Chem Honors next yr! From what I heard, APUSH is definitely not easy, but not very hard as well. I've ask a question about APUSH here in Yahoo answers before, and most of the people who answered said that they enjoyed APUSH. All I know is there will be a lot of reading, and if you can handle that, I suggest you go for it!





Chem Honors, on the other hand, I heard is hella hard. I don't think the Math part in Chemistry is very difficult though. I think the most difficult part will be understanding Chemistry itself. Algebra 2 Honors is easy, even easier than Geometry Honors. First semester will be like a review of Algebra 1, and the rest are topics that are not hard at all.





So yeah, I think you'll be fine.Choosing classes next year(APUSH) help %26amp; advice please?!?
if ur ready for the big amount of work, then sure go ahead.
I am an oncoming senior and just finished taking both of those classes. The rumors were right, APUSH is hard. It is a lot of reading, and a LOT of memorization. It is very easy to get behind, so my advice to you is to not procrastinate and don't fall behind. There are a lot of chapters to read, so a good idea is to look to the internet for help. There is ahuge APUSH support sytstem out there. Start reviewing everything about a month or two before the AP test. It sounds like a lot of work, but it's necessary, trust me. If you like sleep and dont like stress, you would heed my advice.





As for honors chemistry, its not bad. It really depends on the teacher. There is math, but it's basic division and multiplication. You already know how to do the problems, probably, you just have to know the formulas. Don't stress about this class. If you are a good student, this shouldn't be too much of a challenge.





Good luck to you on your Junior year! Don't be like me and procrastinate, it will make every twice as bad. Procrastination is your worst enemy. Just keep going, even when things get hard, and don't be afraid to ask for help from teachers and peers.
