A lot of people I know are taking it, but like I don't wanna waste $80.
Oh, and I ended up with a high 90 in the class (97-99) but I feel like my teacher was wayyy easy.

I took the test and class my junior year. I received a 3 without studying. I had a pretty good teacher too.
Thinking in retrospect the test wasn't too hard and I should have done way better. You should take it. You wouldn't lose much, besides money, if you fail. But if you pass, it will be so worth it. 
The easiest AP test I have taken is AP Gov by faaaaarrrr!

Katie, where did you post your thread?

The AP exam is a College Board run test that you can take for college credit. It's a nationwide exam that tests you on the course. Typically it's a 70 multiple choice test, and 2-3 essays such as DBQs, FRQs, etc (depends on the course). If the class has "AP" in front of it, it's probably got an exam for it.  It's curved on a 1 to 5 scale, and a 4-5 usually gets you college credit. |
I was talking about the DBQ things.
But thanks for the summary on stuff I already knew though.

I think it's a good idea to, especially if you're doing really well. Buy an AP Prep book for it and do really good studying. I recommend that if you're doing that well in the class that you truly should consider taking it.

When I think about it like that, I definitely feel like I should take it. I'll have to study though. I never usually do, but I'm honestly not comfortable at all with how much I learned in the class.
I'm taking 4 AP's this year: Statistics, US, Psychology, and English. I'll more than likely end up taking at least two AP exams; I just gotta decide for which classes.
I hate school.

Take as many AP classes in high school as possible and study your ass off for the tests. AP classes are a joke compared to college classes.

Oh. That site is a mess though. It's completely dead. The thread about Blue has 4 posts. 
Still wondering why you need my link; hoping you're not trying to expose me.

Well we're done with all our classes this semester, so as far as learning/studying the material in a classroom setting, that's out the window. But I'll definitely buy some sort of book to study with if I decide to take the exam.

I'm taking 4 AP classes this year and at least 3 next year. Not sure if I'm gonna take all my AP exams though cause the Physics one apparently is a hellhole. Taking the rest, though.
