I have been constantly asking my friends whether it would be a good idea to take a free period second semester of my senior year. Half say no it will look terrible. The other say that I definitely need one and that it won’t affect whether I get into the schools I want or not. I’m currently a junior and I’m trying to plan out my classes very early. I have taken so many APs that the ones that are left don’t really interest me. These are the classes I have taken and what I want to take (my school does 7 classes a year):

Freshman year - all honors classes + AP World History
Sophomore year - Honors Chemistry, AP English Lang, AP Spanish Lang, AP Physics 2, AP Calc AB, AP US Gov, AP Stats
Junior year - Honors electronics class, APUSH, AP Pysch, Calc 2/3 (dual enrollment), AP English Lit, AP Physics C, AP Spanish Lit (online: AP Calc BC, AP Micro)
Senior year - AP Macro (free period second semester), Differential EQ (dual enrollment), AP Environmental, British Lit (dual enrollment), AP Chem, AP Human, AP Euro
