But I have fairly math and science-oriented courses, Calculus, Chemistry, and Physics (all Grade 12) among them. So how realistic really is a 90+ goal?
I have two spares (periods purely for studying/working) and a soft cooking course (because I should learn these skills). So can I do it, in your opinion? I've had marks bordering 80s before but maybe I'm aiming too high.
Answers:
If you focus in your classes, do all your homework, and study you should do O.K. Don't let your peers take you away from your work. After all it is your future that you are working for now. Ask yourself do you want to work in a non skilled job all your life and live paycheck to paycheck. Or study really hard and earn a good living? If you need to you can ask your teachers or cancelers to recommend a good tutor to help you study and succeed
GOOD LUCK I see a good future for you
I'm sort of in your neighborhood here. My schedule looks like this:
AP Computer Science
AP Physics C (Calculus oriented, not Algebra)
AP Calculus AB
AP Statistics
I'm in 12th as well, and we have a similar goal.
Point :: It can be done, and I think that as long as you try, you can do it.
You could always get a tutor, even if you don't necessarily need it. Just to stay on top of things.
If you try try try you can and most definitely will^^
I remember my senior year in high school well. I decided to take all science classes with the exception of one humanities class that was required of me for graduation - an English Poetry class. The classes I took were: AP Bio, AP Calc AB, AP Chemistry, Robotics Honors, Poetry, Astronomy (And of course there was a gym class). Before that I had not recieved an "A" in a science class. The grades always fell on the border - conveniently on the side that granted me A "B". At the same time, I undertook to become county champion in the mile run.
In the end, I studied hard and recieved A's in virtually all of my classes. On the AP exams, I recieved 5's on all science type classes and 4 in all humanities. I took a total of eight AP exams. The grades did not matter as much to me. Being all A's and B's, I was satisfied with them.
In high school, your teacher's peculiar opinion of you will definitely weigh heavily into deciding your grade. Let me tell you that these teachers do not teach in a way that reflects college level courses.
College level courses are based around unbiased exams. If you go to a big college, study hard, and then take your exams well prepared, you will do better than if you went to a small high school and recieved grades that were unfair and biased as I did.
I tell you this now so that you understand that grades in high school that are decent will get you into college. Focus on standardized exams. These exams will help you get into college and will reflect more on your true abilities.
