For our AP classes, the subjective portion of our midterms were required in all of them, and we could be exempt from the objective part if we had at least a certain average in the course. Or objective was required and subjective was exempt-able, can't really remember.
Yea in my school you had general, honors, and AP courses. If you were in a general or Honors course and you got an A each quarter they would allow to either exempt your mid term or final. But as a gift the school would not give final exams to seniors as long as they had above a D. For AP courses you had to take a mid term and the final would be the AP exam no matter what.

I never payed attention in any History class or English class for that matter since neither caught my attention.

We had a similar set up. We had general and AP courses. Not sure how general courses worked, but in AP you could be exempt for a portion of the exam if you had a B average for the semester. And the AP exam was the final, unless you decided not to take the AP exam (then you had to take a final exam). We had finals even in our senior year.

Well, the fins won the division in 2008, but nothing else really notable. Next week will be tougher. Saints, in NO, on Monday night.

Yea I wish I took advantage of more AP classes while in high school. I only did dual enrollment and got 6 credit hours worth of English done.

Well yeah. I always say, if something isn't interesting, don't bother to learn it because it could never be important.

Those were always the two classes I did horrible in because I didn't see a point in trying since I didn't care.
