AP Art History or AP Biology?

Question

I have a choice for an elective and I'm confused. Don't say whatever interests you more! I just want to know which is an easier class and which I one has an easier AP test. Best answer wins!

Answer 1

it depends whether or not you want to major in that subject.
ap art history is offered in my high school for a visual performing arts credit.
it's a rather hard course for just a VPA. I regret taking such a rigorous course for credit, when I could've taken art 1 or photography...
AP Bio has alot of details. My classmates just took their AP Bio test today, and most of them said that it was immensely hard and the details you needed to know were endless. As for the Art History test.. I'm taking the AP test in 2 days, so I can't give you a specific answer till then.

In my opinion, if you buy the Annotated Mona Lisa & Annotated Arch (art history study tools) and read them as you are learning them in class, the AP test should be super easy for you, and you shouldn't have any problem getting a 4. A 4 or a 5 on the AP test is only possible if you are dedicated in studying. I was stupid, and I didn't purchase the study tool books beforehand, so I am currently stressed to the point of turning crazy.. I am reading the Annotated Mona Lisa & Arch over and over again, and it is still hard for myself to memorize the facts and the art historical periods.

AP Biology is the same too, i haven't taken the course, but if you purchase the AP Test study guide books and etc., you should be able to successfully score a 3 MINIMUM on the test... but AP BIO has ALOT of details.

the break-down has to be that ap art history is easier. the artists and their styles stick to your head better than the cycle of photosynthesis or whatever junk you learn in AP Bio. That's all the advice i have for you, but seriously.
Don't take the subject, whichever you may choose to take, lightly.
Be committed to studying and be on top of things at all times, that way you'll pass the ap test for either one with flying colors.
Hope my advice didn't bore you, and i am not trying to seem like a conceited or anything, i am only providing you with the best advice i can think of.
Good luck in choosing an elective suitable for you ! (=
