I am studying for the AP Calclus test right now and I am as ready as I will ever be.  It is my language test (AP Spanish) that I feel unprepared for.  I just suggested this to someone else for AP Calc so I will tell you too, study:\n\nsolids of rotation (disc, washer, and shell), the fundamental thereom of Calculus (what integral means), U-substitution, derivative rules, Riemann sums, speed, linearization (finding the slope of the tangent line), volume of known cross sections, concavity and inflection points, the area between two curves, differentiability and continuity, local and global extrema (critical points and end points), implicit differentiation equations, trignometric derivatives, the rule of exponential growth (like volume increasing at a rate proportional to the radius), average value of a function, optimization, and related rates. \n\nI know that is a lot but I have taken 5 complete practice AP tests (former tests) in class since February and all of these concepts were reccuring.

Be happy with the passing marks for now. You study to know and to understand, not to please your teachers. If you feel you did your best, that should be enough for today.  Tomorrow is another day!

I will be a lot more excited when finals are over.  Right now, I am stressing badly.

Hey Sneha, I have exams too... whenever you feel really pressured, just remember that you're not the only one, there are lots of others taking exams too, and you're not alone. Take short breaks in between studying and do something else where you don't require much thought, even if it just means closing your eyes and relaxing for 10 mins. Eat and drink healthy. And last, but not least, remember that in the event that you don't do as well as you thought you would, it's not the end of the world. Don't let this thought stop you from working hard this time, but remember, there's always a next time! Good luck!

You can't get past papers, or you can't get passing on exam papers as of now. \n<Scratches head> I am knackered and the day has hardly begun!

I am currently a junior and I am two days away from taking my AP Euro test. I have to say that AP Euro alone (at least at my school) is considered insane to take as a junior(not offered to sophomores). I'm not sure that it is something you would want to take along with another AP class it you're going to be a sophomore. At my school there is a ton of writing (I think I've written over 30 essays) and the tests are really hard. I would try to ask people at your school and see what they say about how hard it is or not, because my school considers it the hardest class.

take class, easier. plans to study math on cd less solid (for most people), than having to do it every day in class.  (learned 80% of my calculus the night before the AP test, got a 5 out of 5)

Uh....\nI think you need to worry more about when you can get back in.   Something in those two questions is sadly lacking.....how about english?

Several. Where exactly are you? I'm in Raleigh, NC. and NC State University gave me credit. I took AP Biology...made a 4 and they gave me credit :)

AP courses really should not be any harder than the course they apply to.  They really just have the goal of the course set for you to be prepared to take the AP exam in the subject, as such that controls the curriculum and pace of the course.\n\nThat said, they do often wind up being harder courses for two reasons:\n\n1) Schools use them as their honors, or advanced courses.  They expect the students who take them to be better, and thus expect more out of them.  This is actually pretty reasonable and can be a good thing as it keeps your better students from being held back by their less-educated peers.\n\n2) Teachers wind up over their head, don't plan the curriculum properly to be where they need to be by the time the tests roll around and start piling on more work in a desperate effort to "catch-up" their class.  This is not a good thing.\n\nFind out from students who have taken those AP classes previously and find out which version of "hard" they fall under.
