Would it be a wise decision to take AP Psychology my senior year? These are the classes I plan to take my senior year:
-NJROTC 4 Honors
-AP Physics
-Honors Calculus
-Teacher Cadet (not a class)
-AP Language
-AP US Government
-AP Macroeconomics
-Student Council
I’ve replied a thread similar to yours and my answer remains the same: I don’t recommend it, but in the end it depends on you.
As a senior that’s graduating in less than three months, I didn’t take many AP classes (only statistics and biology), and I don’t regret not taking more. Senior year is different for every student, some are used to handling a lot of rigorous courses, some just gave up and give in to Senioritis (which is not an urban legend, I’ve suffered through it, and survived).
I personally don’t recommend taking too many, only because there’s other things to consider in your senior year such as college apps (which does take some time to complete), events that you may be interested in participating, and/or additional community hours and scholarship apps that you can get before graduation, and these take time. Juniors sometimes do tend to underestimate the power of senioritis and will have too much on their plate for their senior year, but everyone is different, and taking AP classes do benefit you, however, too many AP classes could result in getting overall mediocre, or worse, bad grades, and could drag your GPA down (which is the last thing you want after getting accepted to schools you want since they do have the right to rescind your admission.)
It’s your senior year, you get to decide how you want to end your final year in high school, just consider the risks (and benefits!) of taking hard classes.
tl;dr: Realistically consider how well you can handle your grades and senior responsibilities, enjoy your last year.
