I got a 2 on my Physics B exam. I'm a helo guy. It's awesome. I've heard that your chance of getting jets goes up with higher scores on the AP exams...

Wow Wink. Thanks for that snap back to reality. Nobody encouraged him to take autobody shop or photography. It was a subtle nudge based on the fact that this individual sounds like he's doing everything correctly.
Sorry, I should have put smileys into effect.

That is news to me, but I know it is true that your chances of getting into a military academy goes up with higher AP scores (damn, did I forget a smiley again?).

Ok, so I'm a junior in high school and im taking AP physics. My teacher is basically a nut case and is giving us questions that MIT gives on there tests(no exaggerating she told us and the paper said MIT) anyways i feel like im going to do poorly in the class but very good on the AP exam. My GPA unweighted is about an 88 as if now but I expect high 70s in this class. On the other hand i lightened up in most of my other classes besides a college engineering class as well as honors pre-calc. I would love to attend any military academy but realize my grades aren't really there. However I do have a lot of extra curiculars; soccer, tennis, track, volunteering at a trolley museum, a couple clubs, piano, and skiing. Should i drop this AP physics class or stick with it in order to better my chances at attending an academy?

Stick with it. I am a physics AP teacher (for now) and a pro-rec'd SNA.. Physics is hard best thing to do is get on the forum and seek help in your class. Most people see physics as a test of how challenged you have been. Its nearly impossible to finish college with a 4.0 in physics.. I got a 3.4 and I was selected above people with 4.0's in other fields. People selecting you to attend the academy or on any selection committe for that matter know why your gpa isn't as high as someone studying art. Keep up the great work and let me know if you have problems with you AP physics. What text are you using btw?
