Is it bad to not take a science class in your senior year?

<p>I will be a freshmen engineering student next fall and the message/suggestions I received from admissions counselors for engineering applicants was to take the highest math/chemistry/physics your school offers. Assuming you did well in Physics I see no reason to take honor physics. Does your school offer AP Chemistry? Would your schedule permit taking a Physics course from a community college or local university?</p>
