Average Number of Honors/AP Courses

<p>My school offers a just enough AP and honors classes to fill up my schedule, of which I have most likely the most rigorous in the entire grade.</p>

<p>Freshman year I was in Honors American Lit, World History and Algebra 2. Regular Biology (no honors) and French 3 (only freshman in the class), plus Orchestra, PE rounded out my schedule.</p>

<p>Sophomore year I took the first available AP, Euro, plus Honors Precalc, French 4, Brit Lit. Chemistry was again the the only non AP option, and I had to take PE and Orchestra as well.</p>

<p>This year I’ve fully maxed out on APs-Calc, US, Eng Lang, Chem, Art History and Music. Thank god we have a 6 class limit or I would have taken 8 and died.</p>

<p>Senior year I plan on taking AP Bio, Physics, Stats, Eng Lit, and Gov, along with Health (bleh required) and maybe psychology.</p>

<p>That’s 8 APs by the end of junior year (taking Chinese), just enough for the National AP Scholar award, and 13 by the end of high school. Double major shouldn’t take more than 4 years with all the credits.</p>

<p>So that’s my perspective. Take as many as you mentally can handle.</p>
