I am planning on taking 2 APs (biology and calc AB), 2 electives (just to fill my schedule, digital design and drawing), and 3 Dual enrollment college classes (English Composition I, World Religions, Economics) English Comp 1 might be taught by a hard but good teacher, World rel is easy, and Econ is in the middle according to the reviews on ratemyprofessor.com

And I will be having 3 free periods in school to make time for the 3 dual enrollment, we have 7 periods in our school.
Thing is I will have to take them after school, since I have no ride, live a bit far from school and don’t drive yet. And I won’t be driving until 2nd semester…

If not I could just take three AP classes (AP econ instead of college econ) and 2 college classes. Or is that too much also?

And, yes, this is in a community college. (SPC to be specific)

I just wanted to know how hard that would be to balance a schedule like that from people who have been to college and high school. Thanks
