Don't you mean 9th?

You had better be talking about AP Biology, boy.

uhh

[Anonymous No.1720077]

Nope, up here in canada we take biology as a course in grade 11.

So... your education is good even though you're behind the U.S. in science, and the U.S. has terrible education standards?

[Anonymous No.1720089]

>>1720085
I was just thinking the same thing, the school system here is shit, and even the stupidest people take biology in 9th grade, or atleast 10th grade at the latest

[Anonymous No.1720096]

in canada we have general "science" for grades 9 and 10
and then physics, chem and bio become three separate courses
and you can take gr. 11 and gr. 12 of all three

[Anonymous No.1720097]

>>1720085
>behind U.S. in Science

I believe Canada is 3rd in Science, behind Finland and China.

U.S. is at 26th or something.

[Anonymous No.1720099]

>>1720089
I don't think it matters when you take it.

I took all three sciences this year. Mofos. In grade 9 and 10 we only got "academic" level science or "applied" science, so being the smart mofo i took academic.

[Anonymous No.1720111]

>>1720099

So you take babby's first science in 9th and 10th grade, and now you're actually getting into the real courses? By U.S. standards you should have done chem and bio by now, and splitting into physics or AP Bio or AP Chem. We like to get down to business and not fuck around doing absolutely nothing.

>>1720119
getting your science classes in grades 9 and 10 means you can get advanced science classes in grades 11 and 12, its not like you just suddenly forget everything in 9 and 10, because you basically expand upon that in 11 and 12

[Anonymous No.1720129]

>>1720126
you mean like how we learn chemistry, biology AND physics two years in a row and expand on them in our advanced classes? yeah.

>mfw you acted like Biology was a science

[Anonymous No.1720138]

>>1720096

You forgot the Earth and Space Science program for grade 11 & 12.

AP is for losers you want IB.

[Anonymous No.1720146]

>>1720126

Yes, but your advanced science classes are just regular classes. We're taking AP Biology and Ap Chemistry while you're taking Biology and Chemistry. That's not advanced, that's stupid. Of course you'll get high test scores when a U.S. beginning 11th grader is more knowledgeable than your graduating 12th graders, and tests are designed with this in mind.

[Anonymous No.1720155]

>>1720146
you mean you call what we learn in highschool "AP" and call it college credit where we get an extra year of real university education, without a bunch of stupid general requirements unrelated to our degrees

Earth Science is for faggots who get lower than 70% in junior sciences.

Lolol, have fun re-learning plate tectonics and easy shit while I learn about electroweak forces and 2 body diagrams.

See the picture in the following post. It's just not called advanced placement here, that doesn't mean it's not as good. Obviously it's better.

I took all four sciences.
My earth/space science class was a lot more than memory work, we learned some of kepler's laws and calculating parallex and shit like that. Learned moh's scale of hardness, how to identify minerals, blah blah. Maybe your school just sucks shit, earth science is legit, I'm going to school for geophysics this year.

And yeah highschool students arguing itt, whatever, Amerifags call their classes advanced and think that means their classes are better than another country's classes, which they know nothing about. It's just kind of symbolic of your overall arrogance, which the rest of the world hates you for.

Have fun knowing that no top universities or Ivy League universities will accept you.

Also have fun knowing that if you do indeed get accepted in University, you would be MUCH older than the people around you. You will struggle with the materials so damn much it's not even funny.

ap bio is intro level bio (bio 101), if that. i TA intro bio and lots of kids roll through with ap bio and do fucking terrible.

[Scia No.1720437]

Why?

[Scia No.1720482]

No really why the hell would a university not accept me?

Because When I teach myself I comprehend less?

Well When I take astronomy chapter tests I usually get 88-94% on the test(this is college astronomy mind you)

And I usually only go over the chapter once sure there are some chapters I need to re-read but thats easily solved

You sir misunderstand how shitty the american public schools are
