Is it a good or bad idea to take 4 AP classes?

Hello!
I am new to College Confidential, and at the moment I am a sophomore in high school. We are making schedules for our junior year now and this is what I have lined up for my schedule:
French 4 Honors
Pre-Calculus Honors
AP U.S. History
AP Biology
AP English 3
AP Psychology
Personal Finance
Is it a bad idea to take all of these classes (especially the AP classes) my junior year. I don’t know if it is a bad idea even though I am taking 1 AP class now.

So, is it a bad idea to take 4 AP classes with those 2 Honor classes? Thanks for giving me your input!

How are you doing in school right now (especially your AP class)?

@The5458Captain These are my classes and grades:
English 2 Honors- 97
Algebra 2 Honors-103
French 3 Honors- 100
Psychology- 101
AP Human Geography- 96
Contemporary issues-100
Chemistry Honors- 101

Based upon your grades, it looks like you can handle it. AP Psychology is generally considered a “light” AP, so the workload (and potential college credit) is less than the other three.

Those are excellent grades :slight_smile: Go for it - but check what the rules are at your school in case you need to "drop down " on one.

Looks almost exactly like my junior year schedule for next year as well!! I am taking AP U.S., AP Psychology, AP Bio, and AP Language and Composition! I think based on your grades it is totally fine! I’m excited for next year already! Good luck!!

Yeah, I think you can handle it too! But like @MYOS1634 said, check with your school if it’s allowed. Best of luck to you!

I am taking 5 APs and got all As last semester. This semester though I am depressed and mentally drained. Have fun.
