My course path... What should I take?

Pre-College Topics High School Life

<p>Okay so let me give a quick recap on where I’m at currently:</p>

<p>8th: Honors French I - C
Honors algebra I - C</p>

<p>9th: French II - A
AP Human Geo - A
Gym - A
Honors Geometry - A
Honors Fresh. Seminar - A
Honors Algebra II - A
Honors Biology - A
Honors English I - A</p>

<p>10th Summer: Honors Precal - A</p>

<p>10th: Honors English II - ?
AP Physics B - ?
Ceramics I - ?
Student Council - ?
AP Calc AB - ?
AP Psych - ?
Honors French III - ?</p>

<p>11th Summer: Honors World
(maybe something else too)</p>

<p>11th: AP English (definitely)
Honors French IV (really want)
Student Council (maybe)
AP Stat or AP Calc BC (or both)
AP Earth
Honors Civics and Economics
AP World (maybe…)
Some elective (ceramics II, maybe AP computer sciences… Im interested in programming so it should be more like an elective then a serious AP class)</p>

<p>12th Summer: an AP if one is offered… Not sure. </p>

<p>12th: AP English
AP Bio
AP US History
Student Council
AP French
… Probably an elective like ceramics…
Not sure what else is offered (physics c isn’t, I don’t know about micro and macro economics… Don’t know…) </p>

<p>Anyways I’m just curious if this is a good sort of plan (assuming I make A’s/decent grades this year and next). Should I take both stat and bc (so far every math ive taken not including algebra I has been pretty easy), will this course load be too much or too hard? I probably wont do a sport … Mostly because I’ll be too busy with school , clubs and working (babysitting three nights a week). I also want to take a few SAT subject tests… (I really enjoyed bio, and I’m pretty good at math) so I wasn’t sure if I should take bio junior year (and earth senior) so I would have time to take the subject test and have it on my college app. I also figured French subject test made sense but I don’t know if I should take French IV this summer so I can take ap French next year and take the subject test so it can get on my college app aswell… </p>

<p>Any advice on any of this would be helpful! Also I’m currently a sophomore (and probably ranked second, I really want to stay second and/or get up to 1st so I’m pretty set on a lot of APs… The rigor also looks pretty good on apps so yeah)</p>

<p>Thanks again</p>

<p>Stats and Calc together is pretty manageable if you’re good at math, especially because they are very different types of math so you don’t get overloaded. In fact, you might find Calc the easier of the two, since Stats is almost technical writing class.
Taking AP Bio and the subject test would be nice if you could manage it. But you’ll have a pretty tough courseload junior year anyway, so you might just want to stay with an “easy” AP like Enviro.
just my two cents (:</p>

<p>Take the subject test at the latest possible opportunity, after you’ve taken as much of the subject as you can.</p>
