<p>Okay, so my problem is very rare because I moved from a different country (Philippines) to the US almost a year ago. I am a US Citizen though because I was born here.</p>
<p>So here is my problem,
I spent my first year of high school in Australia where I took a math class (what I believe is the equivalent of Algebra I) that was really easy. I was accelerated for the next semester with some other people to a class that was called Preparations Maths B. The class covered general topics in math such as algebra and geometry. I spent my sophomore year in the Philippines doing what seems to be the equivalent of Algebra II/Trig. I slacked of a lot and got a borderline of a B and C. This year, I am in a California high school taking Precalculus. I got a B for the first semester only because I slacked off towards the end. I was able to get an A on the final though, even if most people failed. My credits for Geometry in Australia do not count. I have talked to my counselor and my math teacher if I still need to take that class in order to allow me to apply to colleges that require it even if I am already taking Precalc. They are still unsure if I have to.</p>
<p>Here is the thing, I was wondering what class would be better for me. What class would allow me to put up my GPA. As of now, I have a 3.00 unweighted and a 3.17 weighted (ver bad). If ever I do not have to take Geometry to qualify me for certain colleges, I am still thinking of taking it because it might be able to pull my grade up. My other choice would be AP Statistics. I am also not sure if it would be hard or not. I most likely not going to pick AP Calc AB.</p>
<p>My other classes next year would include English 4, US Gov’t & Econ (not sure if I will take AP Macro), Biology (need it to graduate haha), Physiology or Sports Medicine ROP, Symphonic Band, PE Weight Training (also need the credits).</p>
<p>So basically, it is down to taking either AP Statistics or Geometry for my last period. Which class would benefit me more? How hard do you will they both be? Will my Precalculus credits be good enough to cover my Geometry gap?</p>
<p>Thank you very much.</p>
