Self-Study Ap Classes

Have any basilers done this before?
I'm considering doing self-study on Psychology and maybe Biology or Human Geography.

@superswift12: K so in my district if you score high enough on both Map/Isat/explore test and if you were in algebra 2 in your 8th grade year they automatically bump you up.

[b]do. not. self. study. the. exam. for. bio.[/b]

ap biology is a very challenging, two semester long class; it goes so in depth that you cannot physically learn all of the information in order to do well. and unless youve reviewing and [b]understanding[/b] the concepts every single day for a whole year, then there's no way you can pass; it's not feasible.

you need to take the class and do the labs, otherwise you'll get completely destroyed by the exam. do not waste your time trying.

Calc AB cause our teacher split his time teaching AP and IB material.
Stats is extremely easy
I've also heard psychology is easy as well
