AP gov seems to be the easiest AP class in our school, practically everyone gets a 4 or 5, I guess it depends on your school and instructer..
I'm a senior and taking four APs right now.. AP Calc AB, English Literature, Biology and Psychology .. it seemed like an overload in the first couple of months because I'll say that I underestimated how much I had to study for each course and how much time we needed to spend for applications.. but now that applications are done, I absolutley love the fact that I took so many because I love my classes, I guess because I love the subjects, it's all balanced out and stuff. Sometimes I wish that I took AP world history or something with it, but our school only lets us take upto four aps.. I took 3 aps last year, and that was a really easy load.. but I would say that 5 aps is kind of suicide, unless you got some one else to do your work for you.. they're not hard, there's just a lot of work to do..

AP Gov't is not hard. i haven't taken the AP exam yet, but i took it last semester and i managed to ace the class

besides, our teacher told us that if you get a 75% on the exam, it's a 5

so it's honestly not that bad, just pay attention and read the book

i took ap physics c and ap ush last year. i'm tkaing ap bio, comp sci a, and calc ab this year. My school requires us to take the ap exam if we take the course, which i'm not quite sure if i like or not.

on most exams, you can easily get a 40% or so, and still manage to pass with a 3. so, in some cases, just simply reviewing enough can get you a good score.

I only have 1.

I think it's better, because my teacher said if you take them now you won't have to take them in college.And i guess it gets you 'prepared' for college?But, I don't know...

Right now, I'm taking three.. AP US History, AP Government, AP Psychology. I forsee a 5 on Psych, 5 on Government, and anywhere from a 1 to a 5 on APUSH, depending on how much I can study the few days before, because there's SOOOO much information that you need to remember.

Next year, I'm taking AP English (not sure which haha), AP Micro and Macro Economics, AP Calc BC, and AP European History.. I hear AP English is like freshman English class, but the others are probably going to be pretty hard.

I'm only taking one this year (Junior): AP Bio, I had to drop APUSH because of schedule conflicts. =\

Next year I'm signed up for AP EnviSci, AP Physics, AP Calc, AP EngLang, and AP Italian

AP Sciences are double periods where I go, so that somewhat limits how many classes you could take if you fill up on AP Sciences.

Biology: 5
Italian:
Calc AB:
Phys C:
EngLang:
