    hmm i was just wondering what classes are you guys taking? and your opinions of it? (please include the grade you're in too)

    as for myself, i am taking
    English 11 - i love this class.. my teacher is awesome hahaha so fun.
    AP Psychology - maybe its just becaue we're only learning the basics so far, but its so fricken boring. however the textbook is pretty interesting at some parts.
    Chemistry 12 - i kinda hate science, but my teacher's really funny so itsall good.
    Mandarin 11 - words can not describe how much i hate my teacher. she does not know any English and is so indecisive. first she tells us (in a majorly fobby accent) "if you have any questions, do not ask me. ask your friends." *ten minutes later my friend asks my other friend a question* "what are you doing?! please do not talk to each other!! if you have a question, ask me!! not your friends!!!" -nono
    Desktop Publishing 11 - hahaha such a slacking off class. i love my teacher.. he's awesome.
    Math 11 Honours - it's okay. the teacher's okay.
    PE 11 - all my friends are in that class!! woot.. but kinda boring, considering we do the same thing every class.
    Physics 11 - too... many... graphs... to... graph. = =''


    oookay, i hope ppl'll answer now. =P

    yeep..... some schools have 4 classes one semester, and the other 4 the next...... but i think having them all each term is better. that way i wouldn't forget everything i learned first semester the next year. =]

    but i guess 8 courses is pretty much a lot. =\

    AP Physics- it's an okay class, not as hard as everyone makes it out to be
    AP Calculus 2- HARD! [​IMG]
    Statistics- very easy class, most of the work is done on calculator [​IMG]
    Oral Communications- my friend literally dragged me into taking this class with her; fortunately, it's not so bad…
    English Honours- I like the readings, the research papers and documentations can get a bit frustrating though [​IMG]
    Micro Economics- can be fun occasionally, but mostly boring... I blame it on the teacher [​IMG]
    Spanish 4- it's okay, it's basically a compilation of everything I learned during the past 3 years really...

    i'm not too sure yet. my grandparents really want me to go to UBC because they think super duper smart ppl get into it (which is so not true - so many idiots got into that school), and my sister 'disappointed' them when she decided to go to SFU instead. i'm not sure what i want to get into yet... if i want to get into Communications then i guess SFU; if Engineering/Science i guess UBC. i'll decide next year. =P

    yeah same with my parents....they think that UBC is for the "smarter" ppl so they want me to go there but i dunno......im thinking about going into the field of business but the past few years the standards are pretty high for that faculty. i think SFU is better for business and UBC is good for the Sciences
