you can sign up for yearbook in our school if you want ...not skill required heh.

Anyway, the only thing i tried out for is the highest choir we have in our school made up of 16 members that are handpicked by the director (of course) called Song Leaders. I wonder if i'll make it in? haha, she gave me a hint (before my audition i must stress!) by asking "would your schedule allow you to be in song leaders next year, cause i'm really considering you." That was before my audition cause it's basically a solo every single day for me (1 of 3 tenors, of which the other two sing faintly if at all) and she knew how i sung the pieces and really likes my voice! Though i was really sick on our VIDEOTAPED audtions, nooo! haha they are videotaped. Anyway i was sick so i couldn't get as high as i usually can so i had to use Falseto (for those who don't know what it is, it's the way that guys can sing in the female octaves) more often and though she says i have a good falseto i shouldn't have used it that much (but i wouldn't be able to get up there without it, why did auditions have to be that week?) I wish it was just an audition for her, and not to a videocamera cause there wasn't any place to start over or anything. This is my last year to make it in, so... hehe.

Oh well, i hope i make it in! if i don't, i'm not going back to concert choir, just men's ensemble .

hmmm...i'm not exactly sure how the AP system works in mai skool but i noe like 70 pplz were taking the AP stat test...like we hav a separate class for physics, chem, and bio, not one just for "science" (not sure wut u mean by one class per subject ) and i'm not sure how u get in...i think u just sign up or wutever; like neone can take them.

i dunno... every skoolz different...

i kno my friend's, u just have to be recommended by your teacher.

in another skool i know, u hab to write a 3 page essay for EACH subject you are applying on why you want to take that class.

in my skool, u just sign up and da selection process goes like this:

- computer data table set up (GPA in English and Social Studies for Humanities, GPA in Math and Science for Math/Sci AP)
- if there is a dean's referral or a disciplinary action, knocked off the list
- teacher's recs come next. the good ones stay, bad ones get booted.
- cut off of 90 and above GPA in the two subjects mentioned above.

yup... dats what happens. priority is given to students who never took an AP or never took that specfic AP... seniors (current juniors) have the first preference, then the juniors (soph) den us... soph (frosh)...

i might as well post this even though i can't be in it...but i made it in Song Leaders in our school! It's our school's highest level choir composed of 8 or so guys and the same number of girls handpicked by the director after audition. Song leaders gets really extracurricular in our school compared to the other choirs (only one festival for them), song leaders pretty much competes year round totalling about 10 or so festivals and more workshops and stuff.

Oh well, i can't be in it due to my scheduling conflicts of the IB diploma program. Well, i'm glad i was good enough to make it in anyway.

?? at my school you don't need to wait to see if you're any AP. If you're in the honors class then you either have the choice of goin into AP or not.

i'm only going into AP Physics next year, 2 APs is a lot of work, so thats it

I go to some gay school in LA. AP classes are very gay. I'm in some stupid magnet program and they FORCE you to take AP classes. This year, 10th grade, the dumb people had to take a minimum of 1 AP class which was AP Modern European History. Then the majority of the people took AP Physics B or C and AP Calculus. Our school, they make you get in AP, no honor. That's because there's only like 300 ppl in 9th - 12th grade and only like 10 teachers.
