Science 10 AP with Bourget was pretty easy overall. There's four major units: Chem, Physics, Bio, and Climate. The course basically serves as an introduction to the rest of high school science. You'll be given a lot of time to learn pretty basic concepts (we reviewed sigdigs and basic algebra for half a month), so as long as you pay attention you should do fine.

Mrs. Bourget was a great teacher overall, she's easy to understand, provides a lot of examples, and gave us practice tests a few days before every exam so that we could evaluate how ready we were. She was happy to answer questions but was usually only available outside of classtime AFTER school (not in the mornings). She's definitely the no nonsense type of teacher, but as long as you aren't fooling around or interrupting class she's very nice.
