High School Class of 2014

<p>I have a question, not for me but for my sister: which would look better?
Taking all standard classes her junior year, including Spanish, and then taking AP Envi Sci and AP Spanish as a senior, or taking standard classes plus AP Psych her junior year but with no Spanish?</p>

<p>no spanish at all or just no AP spanish? </p>

<p>I would aim for four years of language.</p>

<p>None at all.</p>

<p>I think she should have at least three years of spanish, but that depends on her intended major too.</p>

<p>Have any of you guys started applying for outside scholarships yet? I’m not even sure where to start with that process.</p>

<p>No. I think it would be pretty useless anyway because none of them are worth that much and there are always so many applicants you never win anyway (except maybe with obscure local ones). I could go to work instead of writing essays and make more money than I could expect to get from outside scholarships.</p>

<p>I want to replace AP French with AP Physics. This would only give me three years of French. I want to go into engineering.
Is this okay?</p>

<p>^
I would think so.</p>

<p>I’m hoping I can get away with only two years of language (and not even honors because my school doesn’t have honors foreign language).</p>

<p>I’m still trying to figure out if 6 years of science would counterbalance 2 years of Spanish … I really don’t want to go back to taking Spanish, and I definitely wouldn’t mind exhausting my school’s core science curriculum (Earth Sci, Bio, DE Bio, Chem, AP Chem, DE Physics). I will not be a foreign language major, either (obviously…); probably something techy.</p>

<p>I’m trying to get my senior schedule changed before school ends. I’m changing Honors Calculus to DE Calculus I & Analytic Geometry. I’m replacing my empty spot from Honors Calculus with Entrepreneurship. So I will be taking AP Psychology, AP Biology, AP Lang & Comp, DE Calculus I, Honors Speech, Honors Entrepreneurship, Ceramics.</p>

<p>I’m taking all dual-enrollment classes next year, so yesterday I just took the last class I’ll ever take in a high school. The first class I ever took first period freshman year was with the same teacher I had my last class with yesterday. I like the symmetry.</p>

<p>We don’t do DE. You can’t take DE classes as actual classes for credit. I have to go get my Senior schedule changed also. I’m signed up for a semester of AP Macro and Peace Studies, but I have no interest in those classes and that AP will be too much for me. I’m taking theatre instead.</p>

<p>Hi! I’m in IB taking HL Lang lit, chem and math, SL theatre, business and Chinese B. Currently I play floorball, am in the drama club, Junior Achievement award and key club! (:</p>

<p>School’s out for summer…</p>

<p>^ Darn it, secoja.</p>

<p>Not for me yet :frowning:
I was sick so I didn’t go today, but I still have tomorrow and Monday. (Stupidest thing I don’t know) Then 2 regents (State Finals) and a class final that is outside of school and I’m done! Really want my SAT, ACT (once I take it) and AP scores!</p>

<p>Just saw my official transcript through junior year :/</p>

<p>Usually a :confused: for CC kids is a :DDDDDDDDDDD for everyone else.</p>

<p>I’m probably not getting all A’s this semester meaning no Gates Scholarship for me. :’(
Oh well, lets hope Posse is very EC-driven. Adjusting my college list now. All ivy’s are gone and most top 30 schools are gone, except Northwestern, WashU, and USC. Those three schools tend to be kind to some students with bad GPAs but with high ACT scores from my school. But other than those three I’m just aiming towards Ohio State, UW Madison(Posse), and NYU.</p>
