<p>Thanks hollyert. That does make sense. However, since I entered my school during my junior year, there were some gaps in my learning (as well as requirements I needed to fulfill, like religion and art), so I cannot exactly take the hardest courses my current school offers (sure, I can take the hardest courses that are at the appropriate level for me with all the moving around I’ve done, and which actually fit my schedule - there are usually so many scheduling conflicts since most AP courses have only one class). But thanks for the input! I HAVE tried to take the hardest classes available to me throughout high school, so hopefully it’ll pay off.</p>
