Taking an AP class is so stressful. I hate not understanding what's going on in class, and by the time you try studying on your own you're a whole unit behind because of how fast paced the class is. I wish I was able to take in everything we learn and understanding without having to study extra or watch extra videos. The stress of the exams puts a lot of weight on my already full plate. The worries of will i pass my exam ? is always in the back of my mind, because I want to do good and get college credit but its so stressful. An ap class is a lot of work and gives me a type of self validation. Once I do good on an exam of DBQ I feel good about myself and my work in the class. Being able to manage your time and be orgnaized is a key factor in being able to balance and ap class.
