Sorry, but just judging from that title, that book screams favoritism on the author's part.

History in my earlier years in school, im regretting not taking it for my GCSE's though. I enjoyed resistant materials at school too, making stuff out of wood was pretty fun.

I loved my course at college. 100% coursework based on IT. It was soooo easy, I should have tried harder though, to get a better grade though.

I hate it. My dad signed me up, and isnt changing his mind about it.

Since I'm a freshman, it's actually pre-IB, but its still massive amounts of work.

f I convinced my dad to let me do AP, I'd still have all my courses AP'd, though. Maybe save for math.

Pre-IB sucks even more, it's hard but you don't get the weighted grades

I like using my noggin to answer questions that have yet to be answered.
