My school does not offer many AP classes, and I am taking only 1 AP class as a sophomore! I am afraid that my GPA is not high enough. Should I try to take some AP class outside of school? Maybe I sound ridiculous… I don’t know
Your weighted GPA does not factor into admissions for college. Colleges also will not fault you based on your school’s rules. As long as you’re taking the most difficult courses possible you’re fine. FLVS offers good AP classes, check it out with your counselor.
@FinelyAgedPruno Thank you so much!!!
@raffie no problemo, buena suerte
I only took one AP class as a sophomore. My two friends, both at MIT now bless their hearts, both took one AP class as sophomores. Hell, a girl who is at Harvard now took NO AP classes sophomore year. College Confidential creates unrealistic expectations for “courseload” and “excellence”. You do you, and someone out there will love it.
Focus on interesting ECs if you have extra time
