[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From my experience, an average of 25-30 pages a day, but that’s because the textbook(s) tend to be older or have small font. Most of each page is not important in the grand scheme of what they need to know for their quizzes and the AP test at the end of the year. Plus, some of it is a review from past years. So, whereas assignments at the beginning of the course take 2-3+ hours, they learn how to prioritize information and the assignments end up taking 60-90 mins/day as the year progresses. The teacher also tells you what is critical to know for each unit, less important, etc. but it’s rlly about gaining the prioritization and summarizing info.[/quote]

Daily assignments take 2-3 hours?[/quote]

At my school, it took about 2 hours to do the 25 or so pages at first, but that’s because people were not used to it and it’s definitely a step up from AP Government. But as the semester progressed, the average became about an hour.[/quote]

Yikes!  How long do the kids officially have to try out a class and step down from AP to Honors?  Can they try out a whole quarter?[/quote]
