A class that can be extremely difficult or extremely easy depending on the type of teacher you have. I recommend asking older students what the teacher(
s) at your school are
like before taking this class.
Type A AP Euro Teacher
The teacher that makes it easy is a teacher that gives little to know busy work, actually talks about questions that will be on the exams, and gives curves. Some kids who are retards or are extremely lazy will still find a way to fail, but majority of kids will pass, and about half will pass the AP Exam. They will even let you share the work with other students at times. This is the type of teacher you want, if you get this kind of teacher, it is a great way to boost your GPA.
Type B AP Euro Teacher
This teacher likes to give 2-3 hours of
homework every night, mostly considered busywork every night. Tests will be on the 8 chapters assigned the night before the
test, and almost everybody will fail and there will be no curves. They will also create
retarded projects, useless essays and make you memorize vocab words which wont be on the AP
Test. This teacher will likely give you 5 different textbooks, and expect you to read every page of every textbook by the
time the year is over. When the AP
Test comes around, the 7
people who haven't dropped the class usually end up doing ok, but at the cost of drastically lowering their GPA. These teachers are responsible for roughly 8.2% of teenage
suicide.
Student A:I love my AP European History teacher, I have a 95% and I barely study, he goes over all the
test questions in class, and I only read chapter outlines on his website! My History teacher Rocks!
Student B:Screw you, There are no A'
s, 1 B, 3 C'
s, 40 D's and 80 F's in all of my AP European History teacher's classes, I spend 3 hours a night on
homework and have to study 4 hours to get a D on a
test, 5 students have killed themselves this year, 7 are in mental hospitals, 6 have eating disorders, 3 are in jail for trying to kill the teacher. AP European History sucks.
