Hello, I am going to be entering my senior year in high school and I am second guessing my classes for next year because I am not sure whether they are what colleges want to see or whether they are what I should be taking. I plan to go college for economics and finance. Next year I am signed up for:

Honors calc
Exploring genocide/text to film (English credit) I am also worried schools won’t accept this
Symphonic band
AP Economics (both micro and macro)
AP American government
Psychology/Sociology

Any advice as to whether I should make some schedule changes? My school does have Honors British literature for English as well as AP Literature. I can also take AP Calc AB but I know I won’t be able to handle the rigor. As for a science, should I take one? I don’t feel it is necessary but apparently colleges do so should I? And finally, should I switch out AP gov and/or psych/sociology with other electives?

My dream schools are Michigan State and UNC Chapel Hill if that helps at all.

Thanks so much,
Nolan
