Well, I have my first GCSE tomorrow...well, technically 1/4 of a GCSE - my Spanish oral. I'm confident in some parts, a little bit shaky in others but overall I think I am okay. Then next Friday is my French oral, then on the 13th May - 20 June are my written exams. 22 or 23 in total...!

Good luck to everyone else taking exams.

Well the closest "Big" exam coming up is the AP European History Exam, Friday May 9th. Good luck on your tests.

5 hour exams?! Ouch! My longest is 3, and that's French written.

So far I've had my French oral. In two weeks I have my first written exam - 'Core Maths 2'

Well they are my Master of Law finals. After them I can represent people in court. The whole point is that they are hard and tiring. I'm a quick writer, so I should hopefully be done in 2.5-3h and then have 2h to go over everything, check for inconsistencies and spelling. I'm the kind of person that writes a 30 page essay in an afternoon.

SAT on Saturday, should be above 2200 if my essay is legible.
AP Calculus on the 7th.
AP US History on the 9th. This should be a five without sweating, based on how they score it.
ACT on June 14th.

Should I take any SAT subject tests? If so, which ones?

Yes. If none of them require SAT IIs... don't bother... if they do, then usually they just require 2. Take the 2 you feel you'd do best in, since they want to see your ability to master specific subjects.

Let's see:

AP English Literature next Thursday
AP US History next Friday
End of year exams in June
Probably SAT in October (retaking it so I can get a higher score)
Probably a few more APs at the end of senior year

My school's got very good academics, just not a lot of AP courses. They're AP-level in terms of difficulty though...

Yes. They usually have a list of what they require for admission. Usually, most colleges recommend Subject Tests. I took Biology-E and World History after studying them in school. Many colleges require a Math subject test, which is what I'm taking this summer. Go for Math and if possible, diversity.
