AP classes and scores/chances for competitive schools such as MIT Georgia Tech and Purdue west lafayette?
I took 3 AP classes junior year (US history, physics B and calculus AB) and am taking 4 AP classes senior year (literature, physcis C, multivariable calc and micro or macro). I wanted to take other AP’s but my schedule didn’t allow so I self-taught myself AP computer science A, biology, chemistry and will self-tech macro or micro. What do you think of this? Do colleges care is I self-tech myself some AP’s and still get 4 or 5 as a score on the AP test? What do you think of this AP combination overall? Read more [...]
If I fail a class, how will it affect me?
My high school has what they call program areas. It is basically a field of study you take throughout high school. As you progress you get college credit. Anyway, I’m in AP Computer Science A. I passed the first semester but at this point, I really can’t take it anymore. 5-10 hours of homework for each lab, given around 2 or so labs a week. It’s mostly up to the student to learn the material as we review in class. Why am I telling you this? I’m fed up with it. I don’t wish to do any more work. Please Read more [...]

AP COMPUTER SCIENCE HELP? (Gridworld case study) JAVA?
A grub is a Critter that burrows from one location to another. A Grub knows how far away it can burrow and randomly chooses the direction in which to burrow. It burrows down from its current location and burrows up at some target location. If the target location is empty or contains a Flower, the Grub moves to this location. If the target location contains any other type of object, the Grub gets stuck underground and dies. You are to implement getMoveLocations below. public class Grub extends Critter { private Read more [...]

Do you think my current plan for my sophomore schedule next year will be impressive to universities?
Do you think my current plan for my sophomore schedule next year will be impressive to universities? This schedule isn’t set in stone, I might change it, depending on the discussions I’m going to have with my teachers and councilor(s) over the next few days. I hope to go to college two years early as part of a special early-entry to college program. Plus, I’ve independently studied Calculus sporadically for the past 3 years or so, and one of my major areas of interest if theoretical physics, so Read more [...]
