I'm seeing most of my other friends and surrounding students peers, and those who I've seen in AP seem to do way better than exceptional or just awesome in general.
They can get 4's and even 5's and I'm a senior stuck with two 2's and 2 3's. I'm taking 2 more AP classes that are more managable than the ones I've taken in the past, but I feel... low. I think I am a smart student, but in the AP level I feel like I'm not fulfilling the acheivements of AP. They're college courses, let's face that, so I tell myself that I'm trying my hardest, that in highschool I'm managing to get qualifying scores for college tests (1-5, 3 is qualifying) in this program (not full AP, just a few every year). Am I good enough? ![]() Sorry, I have really bad self-esteem issues... sometimes I can't accept my flaws. |

Please don't be so hard on yourself. You need to think positive thoughts. Have you asked your teachers for help or are there tutors available? Don't be afraid to ask for help.

Don't be so hard on yourself! You can do it! Take the negativity out of your head and don't compare yourselves to the others. I took a lot of AP courses as a high school student and let me tell you- it honestly is a lot harder than an actual college course. Take it from me! And if you need any help with anything, you can message me!

College classes are easier than AP classes because you don't have that many classes to take in college.
Also you aren't worthless. AP classes can be hard, especially the work load. I don't have any experience with the test, but I assume it's hard as well. If you feel that you are behind, then you can ask a peer or teacher for help. |
