Which Class Should I Take?

Hi, I go to a small private school in Canada. I am currently in 11th grade and my school just introduced AP courses. Basically, in the grades prior of this I have been taking all the core subjects + ec's and in 11th grade I took the core subjects + bio, chem, physics.

Now I am deciding for 12th grade and I am really confused on what I should do because my school is forcing me to choose between taking Bio 12, Chem 12, and Physics 12, or AP chem and physics 12, but no Bio. I would like to go into premed in university. What should I do?

Biology 12, Physics 12, Chemistry 12
or
AP Chemistry, Physics 12

Thanks =)

AP Chemistry, IMHO. My son is a premed at Princeton and thinks AP Chem would have been a big help (his school didn't offer it then). He thinks his classmates who had it in HS have an advantage.

Take Bio 12 and Physics 12 and self-study AP Chem, maybe over the summer. According to this thread: Consolidated book suggestions for AP the best textbook for AP Chem is Princeton Review.
