[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At Blair, APUSH is for the first time offered to 9th grader, who had to chose between Honor US history or APUSH. As what I can tell, quite a lot of SMACS kids chose APUSH together with Functions. They are going to be really tortured this upcoming year. [/quote] Most 9th graders should not take APUSH. They are not ready. A couple years ago folks floated this idea of 9th graders taking APUSH, because they had just finished a year of US History in 8th. However, it doesn’t account for students needing to adjust to more rigorous curriculum of HS generally or the amount of time management and critical analysis required for APUSH always. It’s never been an easy class. It not something I would advise a kid to start with in HS unless they LOVE history and are really prepared to step up. Wait until sophomore or Junior year.[/quote]
