A lot of it depends on where you are going to college: the University of Georgia expects an average of 5-8; • The number of AP courses are restricted to one in ninth grade, three in tenth grade, and four in eleventh and four in twelfth. (Exceptions may be granted by the AP Committee during the registration process. The AP Committee consists of parent/guardian, AP teacher, administrator or counselor, and previous content teacher.) • Typical 10th grade AP courses & the prerequisites: AP World History – exceeded Lit/Comp 9 EOC and an AP/HN history recommendation AP European History - same AP Statistics – exceeds on one or both math EOC’s and accelerated math teacher recommendation AP Psychology – 80 or above in Biology, preferably taken psychology, and AP/HN teacher recommendation AP Human Geography - exceeded on 8th gr. CRCT and 8th gr. L.A. CRCT and an HN history recommendation Student Name: ______________________ Pin # _________ AP Course: ______________________ Advanced Placement Agreement AP/HN Contract: Must get for all AP/HN courses if you did not get one signed last year - Must get these 3 signatures. Get from advisor, registrar, or Ms. Belechak Students (and their parent/guardian) who wish to enroll for an Advanced Placement Course must sign the following agreement in order to be enrolled: I recognize that participation in AP classes requires me to: o Demonstrate increased student independence o Take on a high degree of responsibility o Meet higher standards than students in College Preparatory courses to earn the same grade (Note: College Preparatory classes typically require 20-45 minutes homework nightly. Honors classes typically require 1-1/2 times as much homework as College Preparatory classes. Each AP course may require as much as 1-1/2 to 2 hours homework nightly). o I commit to completing any required summer work on time and in a satisfactory manner. o I commit to remain enrolled in the AP classes I have chosen for the entire course. While transfers to a College Preparatory class may be granted through the Honors/AP review committee (administrator, registrar, counselor, AP teacher, student, and parent), the following policy will be applied: Students will be permitted to transfer out (within the first 5 school days of the course and grades earned in that course will transfer to the new course) only at AP Committee discretion, and on a space available basis to the class that they are transferring into which in all possible cases should be a corresponding course. Grades earned in the AP class will follow students to the College Preparatory class. I realize that by enrolling in an AP course I am expected to take the corresponding AP exam in May. ___________________________________ Parent Signature _________________________ Date ___________________________________ Student Signature __________________________ Date ___________________________________ AP Teacher ___________________________ Date Revised 1/18/13 Must be turned in Mon., Feb. 1st with Registration form!

Sample 10th grade schedule Please note, we make the schedule for the entire year: • HN/AP classes may Have summer Reading assignments Sample 10th grade schedule with GICA Grade Point Average Think about your transcript and calculate GPA: GPA is calculated by adding points for every grade that appears on your report card. The sum is then divided by the number of courses that you took. You can use the following scale to calculate your GPA: A = 4 points (90-100=A) B = 3 points (80-89=B) C = 2 points (70-79=C) F = 0 points (below 70-F) *You receive bonus points for Advanced Placement courses (+ 1 point) **You receive a bonus point for an ACADEMIC MOWR course (+1 point) Ie: A=5 points, B=4 points, C=3 points ***HOPE GPA re-calculation: HOPE will only give (+.5 point) added to the grade earned; but Not to exceed a 4.0 Ie: A=4.0 points, B=3.5 points, C=2.5 points Calculate your GPA Matt is a student in ninth grade.
