I'm taking that next year...but on the fence at the same time. I love pre-calc, and algebra, so I know I will love AP Calculus. But if it's like my other AP classes, it's extremely rigorous and I will probably struggle during the first report period

Speaking of school... I was on the school computer the other day and atrl was blocked. They never block a website unless someone else has been on it b4. I've never been on atrl at school, so u know what that means?? I could find a hottie from atrl at my school!!!'

I mean I'm getting an A in all the classes I procrastinate in so, no need to change my methods I guess :-/

My addiction is so bad, I also go on ATRL from school, either on my iPod or on the laptops

LOL me too, but I need to change for college, because these bad study habits will not cut it, but it's so hard

They make it seem harder than it is. Like you just said you love pre-calc and algebra so it will be kinda easy.
It's more of the thought process behind calc than the calc itself. I slayed after I got the notion behind it.

Oh in college...I will struggle trying to change my habits. I guess I got 4 years to change them before then.

You know you are allowed to take Algebra II as a sophomore. I would have done that, but I passed the 8th grade Algebra exam, so I didn't have to take 2 maths in one year. I ended up taking Geometry in 9th grade.

I like how you planned it out.
You totally should consider it. Because, if you plan on just jumping into Calc once you get into College it "might" make it hard to balance the rest of your classes.

I know a lot of my friends take Geometry as freshman some even take Algebra 2/Trig as freshman. The only reason I'm taking Algebra is because of ****ING MOTHER NATURE. The day of the test to place out of Algebra and go straight to Geometry....IT FLOODED! I was late and I didn't take the test. So I'm stuck in Algebra.  I'm getting a 98% in Algebra....obviously I know this ****.

I'm going to talk to my teacher and counselor to see if I can go to Geometry 2nd semester....doubt it though  I took a bit of Geometry last year. So I know some concepts to not be behind. Like ASA, SSS, SAS and solving proofs. And figuring out circumference, radius, diameter etc..

If you ask him/her and your teacher likes you.
You should have no problem advancing to Honors.

I see. I so hated Geometry...and found it useless. Until I had Pre-Calculus and Trig
