@ucbalumnus I’m sorry - I should have made myself clearer. DE Bio is not one of the four that she’s interested in, because she’s taking AP Bio right now. I was rushing through my post and made several errors.
The point I was attempting to make was in reply to Thumper1, who advised me to let my daughter take the courses she is interested in, and not worry about whether they are DE or AP. I was letting her know that these WERE courses she was interested in taking because she really doesn’t have the choice of not taking two or three AP/DE’s due to the school’s lack of senior level honors classes.
@jcmom716 Thanks for your input. We will definitely ask around about the teacher. She’s pretty good at getting opinions from other students and teachers about classes she’s interested in. And I usually don’t go to the school registration events - she’s also been good so far about choosing good course schedules on her own. But next year just seems a little more complicated, so that’s why I plan to go - to get all the info we can to make a good decision.
