Answer 1

An average of 99.6 is a 4.0. (That's amazing average, by the way.) AP classes count as college credit if you qualify by passing the final AP exam. Honors looks just as good on a transcript as an AP class, but it doesn't count towards your college credit. Honors may be easier.

The teaching system kind of varies from teacher to teacher. Some teachers give loads of homework, while some find it useless and only give a moderate amount of homework. It depends.

Don't fret. Public school really isn't that bad. I would imagine that it is different from a private school (I go to public school.) Entering high school can be a little unnerving, especially your situation of switching environments. Judging from your excellent grade average, you'll do fine with the academics.  

Answer 2

dont mean to be harsh, but i highly suggest u go to a public school. get prepared for life. im sorry but the world isnt protected like a private school. learn how to deal like everyone else. i went to a public school with a cop on campus all day, we had to go through metal detectors at the doors. cinco de mayo there was a fight between the blacks and mexicans and the SWAT team had to come. you can get a good education if ur determined to. just go to a good public school in a rich area or something and u wont have to worry so much.

Answer 3

First, you can't directly change a percentage to the 4.0 scale.  If all the classes you took you got an A or A+ in, then you have a 4.0.  If any of them were an A- or less, you don't have a 4.0.  Find a GPA calculator online if that's the case.

You're not going to get into an Ivy League, or even some public schools, using the Bob Jones / Abeka curriculum.  It's just not recognized by most schools as anything other than Christian propaganda.  The University of California system will not accept science, history, or English courses from the Bob Jones textbooks.  So I think its about time you went to either a public or secular school - if you do want to get a good education and go on to college.

Better get over being sensitive - the real world is not going to conform to your needs.  

Answer 4

It sounds like you're very worried and stressed out about this!  You should talk to an adult that you trust and can confide in about your fears and problems and get to the root cause of what is making you so anxious about this.
