My government class is literally so easy, I feel like I am too smart for it and I should have taken AP… and I feel like I should have taken another science like AP Bio or AP Physics, which are offered at my school. I’m not really sure what I’m looking for asking this. I applied to Cornell Human Ecology as a Policy Analysis and Management Major, and I feel like they would have wanted to see AP Government. Aghhhh. I guess I am just having regrets right now. Maybe I should have talked to someone when I first made my schedule. All my friends have such competitive schedules and they all took AP gov, and I feel like I’ve stepped down a level. I don’t know. No one has to answer this, I just felt like writing it somewhere.

Hello! Sorry to hear that you have regrets about your current schedule. If you’re concerned about the rigor (or lack of it), I suggest you talk to your guidance counselor. Is it possible is switch into AP gov if it’s close to the beginning of the semester? It might be past the point of switching, and if you took the class last semester, it’s a moot point.
Either way, good luck with senior year! You do have a good schedule, and life doesn’t end after high school, so it won’t be the end of the world. :slight_smile:

I think your schedule is already pretty competitive, but what I would suggest is to study up for the AP gov exam. Talk to a AP gov teacher about tips on the exam, buy a prep book, and get to studying.
