I remeber taking this like 17 years ago and scoring a 4 lol. Just before we took the exam they changed the format. That's too bad coz I was expecting a 5. Things must be way more different now. It was the same with AP Computer Science, they change from C++ to Java but we didnt have any Java practise books but had C++ books.

Quick question
I'm an incoming junior and have the option of either taking ap bio or CP physics which do you believe would be a better option in terms of getting a better grade?

[tbsupratom]

I should have taken Biology H 1st semester last year and Chemistry H 2nd semester last year instead of taking Bio H 2 years before now. It’s like a language that chemistry only helps if you have bio at the same time.
