(no subject)
Schedule, 1st Semester, 2004-2005
1st - Chemistry for Idiots - Mr. W. Mulhearn
2nd - Free, except for Tuesdays, on which chemistry is extended to two periods.
3rd - AP World History - Mr. Noel Breger - I got the assignment for summer, and it looks easy enough, but part of our essay requires us to write about which parts of the book could be used in the AP format and alludes to "MCs" "DBQs" and "COTs". Now, I know what a DBQ is, but what on earth are the other things? I didn't take AP US last year.
4th - Honors Advanced French - Madame N. Cooper
5th - Advanced Algebra and Trig - Mrs. N. Jordan (who the hell is this?)
6th - Free (sort of - I'll explain later)
7th - Honors British Lit and AP Composition - Mr. S. Klinge (woo!)
8th - Concert Choir (assuming the prick lets me into Mastersingers - I'm dropping if he doesn't)
9th - Death and Dying - Mrs. D. O'Meara
However, if AP Portfolio is being offered sixth, Mr. Newitt is going to allow me to secretly take it while saying I'm taking it independently 2nd period. So yeah, that would mean my only free would be 2nd period, and on Tuesdays I would have NO frees, but - it's too good to matter.
If AP Portfolio is fifth, however, I may have to take it independently. Ew.
I'm quite excited about the books we can choose from for AP World - I think I'm actually going to read about five of them -
Cows, Pigs, Wars, and Witches: The Riddles of Culture - Marvin Harris (probably for credit)
Tulipomania: The Story of the World's Most Coveted Flower and the Passions it Aroused - Mike Dash (I actually think I may have already read this, as totally dorky as that is)
The Warrior Queens - Antonia Fraser
The Templars: The Most Dramatic History of the Knights Templar, the Most Powerful Military Order of the Crusades - Piers Paul Read
Karma Cola: Marketing the Mystic East - Gita Mehta
I love this stuff! Yay world history! Booo US History, you dry, ridiculous thing, you.
, it's such a good list, even though we have to choose only one.
Off now to Vassar and Bard. Wish me luck?
