Dual enrollment physics vs microbiology spring of junior year

OP- if you want to become a scientist, you need to think like a scientist.

Bio, Chem and Physics-- with labs-- are the building blocks of any scientific career. Cover off the building blocks before you specialize. Being a generalist with a solid grounding of the concepts, theory and applications of science will make you a better X… whatever X turns out to be once you get to college.

You might ask the instructor of the microbiology course- but my guess is that any working scientist is going to vote for physics first.

Assuming you’ve had some core biology previously, I’d recommend microbiology now since you will take AP Physics C (either the actual AP or the equivalent) senior year. Follow your interests. Who knows, maybe your microbio class will lead to an interesting project or essay!
