grievous has it right. In general, if you're applying to a top notch school, you should get the A in the AP level. A slightly less good school would probably like the B in Honors, its a good compromise (though I don't know exactly what 'Honors' means, in my high school Honors was the same level of difficulty as AP)

Is it hard to keep it up in a situation like this where most alarms aren't real fires?

How many of those fire calls are "OH GOD THE BUILDING IS ON FIRE" vs "this trash can is burning"?

In the town I live in, the ambulances and fire trucks are both managed by the town, but still you see both respond to a medical call, because all the firefighters are EMTs and having a few extra hands around is always better.

Have you ever driven the a firetruck? What's it like? How fast are you allowed to go on normal roads?
