Which works better for me? I'm starting my Junior year, but if I want to have a 4 period half day my senior year then I can only take one or the other. My course-load is heavy so far with APUSH, HPreCalc, HChem (cant take AP chem before honors) AP English 5-6 and AP Psych.

NOTE: Anat/Physio isn't honors at my school, where as AP Bio is...so it would actually bring my GPA down if I took it; I've had a pretty rigorous academic high school career so far.

All things being considered....which do you think is less work in culmination with all the other work I already have? Which one would look better to undergrad programs? I would like to become a doctor with an bio-medical or chemical engineering major during my undergrad

At my school Honors PreCalc is one of the hardest classes, but Anatomy is one of the biggest blow-off classes, so it's kind of hard for me to decide. But, I say you should take AP Bio! It will might be hard, but your rank (if you get one) might drop some if you take Anatomy. Also, I find Biology much more interesting ;D

Definitely take AP Bio! I feel that the material covered in it can be applied to a greater amount of future courses you'd want to take in college than Anatomy. Unless, of course, you really love anatomy and wouldn't mind the hit in rank. If you're going into biomed or chemical engineering, I would think that you'd have to retake bio or take higher levels of it in college, so it's useful to already have that background info already, even if your uni doesn't give credit for it.

Just go ahead and take AP Biology...it seems like you're too worried about rank anyway.

AP Bio for sure and maybe take Anatomy and Physiology senior year.

AP Bio will help in pre med but you take Anatomy and Physiology in med school but theres a good chance you're going to forget it
