Yes it does. Schools always would rather see that you are challenging yourself and not just sitting back and not working hard.
-----------------
Usually, yes. However, from my experience, honors classes are only slighly harder than regular classes; however AP courses are significantly more challenging. So an A in a regular class could be better than a D or an F in an honors class, for example.
Definitely a B in an AP class.
Honors Biology is a more rigorous and in-depth version of a standard biology course. It typically covers the same fundamental concepts but involves additional coursework, projects, or research opportunities to challenge high-achieving students and better prepare them for advanced study in the life sciences.
It is better to get a B in an AP class then an A in an Honors class, just as it is better to get a B in an Honors class then an A in a College Prep class. When colleges look at your application, they want to know that you are challenging yourself and taking hard classes, because they are essentially looking to see how well you will do in their school. AP classes are considered to be tougher then Honors classes, because AP classes are introductory college classes that are taken during high school- that's why some colleges give credit for a high enough AP test score. However, Honors classes are really just advanced high school classes. Grade reviews done for college entrance are done in an 'over-all' manner. The amount of honors classes taken will be noted and average GPA. Other classes will be looked at, and also that GPA. Individual classes are very seldom picked out to review grades, unless you are seeking to enter a very specialized field, and have taken many college prep classes in that area as honors classes. Most high schools do not offer enough 'specialized' prep classes for specific college interest.
it depends on how you want to look at it, if your a enviromentialist kind of person then Hybrids are better for the air...Regular cars if you like horsepower, and motor sports and a traditional kind of person then a "Regular car" is for youit depends on how you want to look at it, if your a enviromentialist kind of person then Hybrids are better for the air...Regular cars if you like horsepower, and motor sports and a traditional kind of person then a "Regular car" is for you
Many people are bored and unchallenged in regular classes so honors courses were created to benefit them. Now colleges will look at whether or not you took those classes because if you didn't its either because you don't care to be challenged (not a good sign) or you aren't capable (also not what they are interested in).
DIY (Do it yourself) decorating is definitly cheaper than having a professional coming in. However it may not look as nice and it may not look as rich as regular decorating is.
Depends on the look you are going for: suede is classy, patent is sexy.
Yes you can babysit before you've taken the class. Although, it prepares you and makes you look better to parents if you've taken the class.
Most students who take AP or honors courses are prepared for college level work because they have challenged themselves in high school. However, there are many high schools that offer regular classes that can be very challenging also. The students who take regular courses in these schools can also feel prepared for college courses. As a rule, colleges like to see students take at least a few of the hardest courses offered in their high schools. As a college consultant, however, I am afraid too many colleges look at your GPA sometimes more than they do the courses you take, AP, honors, or regular.www.collegedirection.org
Honors classes do more than just prepare you for college, they show that you have what it takes to be successful. The attachment of "Honors" to a class usually denotes that it is a more advanced class for a select number of students. These classes usually involve more work, but they also pay off with a greater understanding of the topic as well as a notch on the transcript. Even students who do not usually consider themselves the "Honors" students can benefit from one of these classes. They can help you by improving your study skills as well as helping you becoming more self reliant. Colleges also look at these classes to see whether a student has challenged him or herself throughout their high school career. In all, honors classes can do a lot to help you in high school.
no, they are not actually "flashy". they are like the regular ones, just with a goldish tint. in my opinion, they look better!
AnswerHonors classes look great on a college application and expose you to a higher level of learning. If you are willing to do the extra work, an honors/AP class is the right place for you. The honors/AP classes are weighted higher so they will boost your grade up one letter score; the letter grade increase will be present in your GPA. When you take these classes colleges tend to pay more attention to you rather than other students affiliated with standard courses.
