So soon we are starting to choose classes for next year and I will be a junior. I know I am taking some classes for sure but I need some insight on which classes I should keep and which I shouldn’t bother taking. I am going to take 8 (full schedule), bu I can only think of 7 off the top of my head right now.
My Classes I plan on taking next year:
-APUSH
-AP Chem OR Environmental Science (I’ll take the other one my senior year)
-AP Computer Science A
-NJROTC 3 Honors
-French 2
-CP Pre-calculus
-AP English Language or Honors English 3 (I have to persuade my teacher)
Just wondering, what is NJROTC 3 Honors? I’ve never heard of that abbreviation.
The third year of Navy Junior ROTC (military in high school). My third and fourth year of it count as honors credit.
Your schedule as presented above, is fine. It’ll likely be pretty intense.
Your 8th period should be an elective or just lunch, because you have a lot of AP classes.
AP chemistry is very intense, so you may want to take Honors English with it - conversely, if you manage to convince your teacher for AP Lang, take APES.
Lunch doesn’t count as a class, we all have it each day. Now, about the science AP issue. I feel like Chemistry is a lot more fun but tougher, and on the other hand Biology is easier but boring. I think APES is extremely easy but I don’t know much about the class (I’ve heard it’s an easy A). @MYOS1634
Another thing is I have extracurriculars as well that I am committed to (Orienteering/Raiders for JROTC, Track, Cross Country). I am also on student council and I may have a job next year.
AP chemistry will probably work for a greater variety of majors + no difference for gen eds.
APES is sort of applied biology and earth science - you study geology, ecosystems, resources, pollution, etc.
I intend to double major in econ and management so neither help me out there, just trying to take out gen eds. @MYOS1634
