ahh grades
i have two questions but if you can only answer one thatll be ok! first off im 16 and a sophomore.
1- i was wonderin how much harder are AP courses than advanced? i took 9th and 10th advanced literature and i was recommended for AP liturature next year and was wondering how much more of a struggle it honestly is?
2- im really worried that i wont survive in college. i make mostly all a's and an occasion b on report cards in regular & advanced classes, but the thing is, i dont really learn much! i memorize information, pass the tests because of that, soon forget it, but usually do all my homework, therefore i get high grades. i dont really try to do this, but it jus kinda happens. i zone out and stuff so yeah + if its not an interesting subject i just can not learn it. is that going to affect me a whole lot in college? im scared of flunking out especially since i want to try to get into a major university!

Relax...AP American history was a joke I can tell you at least.
College is awesome- wayyyy better than high school- I can tell you that also.

Pleeeease type correctly. This hurt my eyes to read. :(
AP courses are of college caliber. They are usually based mainly on tests, and go much faster than regular classes would.
As are AP classes, college grades are mainly based on tests and essays.You don't even need to go to class.
You choose the classes that you take in college, so just pick ones that interest you.

to answer your first question, i've done some honors and stuff and AP is pretty hard. Well, its not exactly hard, it just takes a lot more time and effort, so make sure that you are ready for it. Since you're already in advanced, it will only be a bit of a step up from that. Of course, i don't really know your entire school's curriculum, but thats how it works here.
as far as your second question, you should be fine. That is how studying works. You still have the information inside you if you can pass your tests, but you will probably need to just refresh teh information before you have mid-terms and finals and things. If you work hard and have grades like that, you should be completely fine in college. Don't worry about it. YOu have two more years.

AP classes are actually pretty harder...most AP classes are made to be harder then college so you prepare for harder but actually end up being able to handle college level...
it all depends on which college you go too...community colleges are really no different then highschool...unverisities are hard...I think once you get in college you enter a whole new mindset realising this is where my future starts and whatever I do here effects me for the rest of my life..yes in college you do take core classes but the majority classes are ones geared toward your major so you wont have the fousing problem
