A class taken by a group of overachievers, aiming to wow colleges by taking a unique class that's supposed to teach them to do college research papers. Upon applying for the class, students often have no idea of what to expect, but are calmed by the idea that they soon will. It's only until the day before the actual AP exam that students realize they still haven't figured out what the class is all about. Yet, when others ask them what the class is all about they are known to recite the exact description published by Collegeboard word for word. And while students often complain about the overwhelming workload, they are secretly comforted by the fact that it's their easiest AP and refuse to let the outside world uncover their darkest secret. The typical AP Seminar student is known for their deep desire to write and publish their own review book on the class in order to profit off the class before opponents such as Barrons or the Princeton Review can.
AP Seminar student applying for course: I have no idea what this course is all about
AP Seminar student day before AP exam: I have no idea what this course is all about
Non-seminar student: "What do you guys even do in AP Seminar?
AP Seminar student: "Oh, we learn really in depth college level research skills and learn to write Master level research papers. The class is all about argument..."

Get the AP Seminar mug.A class taken by many high school students to avoid taking Calculus. Little do they know, it's merely the unaborted result of a drunken one night stand between Math and English that inherited the ugly traits from both of it's parents. This little shit is deceptive. Students will enter the class with high hopes, but as the year progresses they slowly tumble into the black pit of never ending despair and existential dread as they realize that nothing can save them from the void of misery that is the approaching AP Exam.
Student 1: I'm going to avoid taking Calculus by taking AP Statistics.
Student 2: Good luck, fam. I'll pray for you.

A high school course from hell that hosts students who say "hey, I'm good at art, why not?", and immediately turns them into a pretentious art hoes who at the same time hate art. They didn't know what they signed up for, or else they wouldn'tve done it in the first place! Eight months, 24 pieces of art --12 breadth and 12 concentrations--, countless people saying that their art is terrible and that they should just give up, 0 souls remain. Catch 'em in the halls with a bigass portfolio, wearing mustard yellow, permanent bags under their eyes and milk and honey in hand.
Students include:
1) the "re-starter" who starts their concentration over 10 times, and only has their first piece done in March. They're "fiiiiiiiiine".
2) the "truly 2D": wisely chooses to do photography, digital art, or anything that isn't drawing. See how they finish everything a week or two early and actually stay on the in-class deadlines while everyone else is suffering.
3) the "procrastinator": hasn't brought their work home in days... maybe weeks. 3 all-nighters, 4 gallons of coffee and 5 mental breakdowns during submission week before they just make the deadline with 10 minutes to spare.
4) the "one who can't handle": Just thinks about stress and how it's going to make them stressed is already stressing them along with every person who has to hear them stress about stressing. Cries 3x a day.
5) the "one who tried to switch out... several times": why are they taking AP art? They don't even know.

Get the AP Studio Art Drawing mug.Supposedly the academically-gifted. That can be true, however, we like to believe that AP stands for "Advanced Procrastinator." We often don't care about what we're learning, we just want that weighted average. We casually share answers, discuss test and essay questions, and occasionally sleep in class. Our assignments aren't normally started until the night before their due-date at the earliest, yet they're all turned in on time. We hardly ever study - only the last 10 minutes before a test. It's a competition of who knows the most in class. The only time we seriously study is the two days before the AP Exams. We get excited talking about the essays afterward.
AP Student: I was up 'til 1:30 last night writing my AP World essay.
Non-AP Student: Didn't you have two weeks to write it?
AP Student: Yeah, but I didn't feel like doing it.

Get the AP Spanish mug.The class that uninformed students take in attempt to avoid AP Calculus.
Students begin the year with high hopes, learning about simple probability distributions and elementary data calculations. Around the time the "oh, I don't need to try in this class" attitude sets in, the course picks up and students are slammed with the first difficult concept of the course: Proprties of Linear Regression. While many students can handle this unit, many fall behind and begin contemplating suicide. As the class progresses into Experimental Design and probability models, students are overwhelmed with continuous stress and tears. The concepts are too abstract and students may begin feeling as though the work is pointless. Around this time, they give up.
Shortly after the giving up phase, the class takes a turn to the topic of Inference, which no one actually knows anything about because everyone's sleeping. Confidence Intervals and T-Tests are emphasized. The dreaded Chi-Square tests end the course before the halting AP Exam, and the students are pounded with THE most difficult and grueling AP Examination offered and again get a final taste of how hopeless they really are. After the AP Exam, AP Stats students generally fall to become depressed because this class has quite frankly screwed up their minds. They begin noticing flaws in data all around the world and can't fathom exactly WHY they care.. they have been brainwashed by the one, and the only.. AP Stats.
