That’s a really nice schedule. APHG is Eh. Not worth taking.
We’re supposed to get 18-24 inches kms.
Finally have my sophomore schedule here:
World History/English 10
Physics
Chemistry
Calc I (at community college, if my self-studying pays off)
Principles of Engineering (PLTW)
Digital Art/Illustration (forced fine arts elective :()
The school doesn’t have honors/regular divisions or AP classes. Where it’s applicable, though, they’re supposed to have honors courseloads.
Wow Calc I, impressive! @OMPursuit
While we’re posting course selections:
Intro To Calculus BC Honors
Chemistry Honors
US History 1 Honors
Spanish 3 Honors- planning on skipping spanish 4 or taking during summer so I can take ap span in junior, thoughts?
English 2 Honors
P.E- 4 YEAR REQUIREMENT!!! WHY???
AP Biology
Science Research Methods- 3 Year Course, only top 2% of class makes it, but you get to perform research, submit to competitions, and get published.
IMPORTANT (to me at least)
So, my school works on a point system (no percents) and the marking period grade is calculated by the points earned divided by points given. We have had a measly 103 points given for the entire marking period, and then she entered in a test yesterday worth 100 points BY ITSELF. That’s almost half our grade! The average on the test was a 74 (I got an 80) and it dropped my grade from a 97 to an 88. I asked her to lower the absurd value of the test from 100 to 50 to be reasonable, but her logic was that she wouldn’t because she is grading a 100 point essay as well.
Basically, is it right for a teacher to make a test 33% of a grade, an essay 33% of a grade, and not give any opportunities to bring up the grade for 3 weeks before the marking period ends?
@neophite are you going to take a language senior year? If not, then I think you shouldn’t skip Spanish 4, since colleges like to see 4 years of a language.
And I don’t think it’s right for your teacher to do that.
@adiacs Oh, wait! Speaking of that, I forgot Spanish III. The Calc would technically have to be after the school day ended, so I could make my other classes. It’s not taught at my school! XL
And, yeah, I’m self-studying for pre-calc/trig. There’s not so much to learn, and no great shortage of resources! I’m already making some good progress.
Also, @neophite could take further college-level language classes by dual enrollment. In that case, he’s golden (and could totally skip up, if he made sure to get the vocab)!
Man y’all are so good at math and I’m only going to be in Algebra 2 next year
You shouldn’t judge yourself against me, like, ever, @awesomepolyglot . I’m such a math neeerd. o.o
I’m very worried about doubling on science. Both classes are taught by the same teacher(!), and she can have trouble with her English. :S
Edit: 100 posts, oh noooo…
@awesomepolyglot it’s okay I suck at math too
Also, @neophite , so much envy for that research elective. I want to do that… D:
ugh same @awesomepolyglot I should be taking pre-calc next year but I dropped out of Gifted because I didn’t like the program so I couldn’t move up. It’s so stupid 
I have a 101 average in Geometry right now whyy doesn’t my school understand me :(((
I don’t like it when schools do that. The biggest reason I’m starting to warm towards my smaller school is that it… really does want to accomodate me. It’s awesome! :L
If there’s an alternative, or some sort of pre-college program, you could prolly slip your way into that by getting impressive test scores.
Ack have you guys ever felt the psychological need to do something but also feel completely terrified to do it?
Well I felt like studying some but I was too lazy 
Next year I plan on taking:
AP Stats
Spanish 3
AP Bio
AP US History
H Anatomy & Physiology
H English 10
and Intro to Healthcare (a requirement for the healthcare program I’m in. I heard it sucks though
)
I’m in orchestra, but I think I might quit to pursue more medical related electives. What do you guys think?
@futuredoctoryang Don’t be afraid to keep doing orchestra if you have fun with it/like it. You want to hang on to your passions for dear life; they’re not only going to bring you to whatever school you’ll get into, they’ll also stick with you through life.
I play second violin in a youth orchestra, totally outside of school. Where are you in yours? 
@futuredoctoryang im not sure how applicable this is to classical violin, but try to form a band! There was a music center 5 minutes from where I lived that has a jazz band, and they accepted my electric.
you guys are lucky; my school makes every student take the same classes and if you take different ones, it counts for nothing. For example, everyone in sophomore year must take us history 1, but if you also take ap world it doesn’t count toward the 3 years needed of s.s
What. . . that sucks.
I’m still debating on my schedule for next year. These are the classes I’m debating on:
AP NSL Govt (for sure)
Honors PreCalc (for sure)
Honors English 10 (for sure)
Honors Chemistry (for sure)
Honors French 3 (for sure)
AP Spanish Lang (maybe)
APCS (maybe. I could get a teacher recommendation but idk if they’ll let me as I’m not an upperclassman and have not taken the pre req)
AP Bio (maybe not, I would if it wasn’t double period. There’s a possibility they could change that for next year though )
Anatomy and physiology (maybe, it’s advanced level but idk if it’ll give me 5 points for an A. I’m really interested in it, though)
Great schedule @Giovuhnni It looks somewhat like mine…
- Honors English 10
- Honors Chemistry
- AP NSL Gov't
- Honors Pre-calc
- Either: AP Stats or AP Physics
- Honors Spanish 4- possibllyyyy AP Spanish Lang?
- Digital Photography
