I agree with the above poster – if you are positive you can handle honors/AP courses, then be MORE assertive and convince your guidance counselor to place you in one or two junior year. Have your parents spoken to your counselor as well? Our counselors schedule a meeting with students and parents together to plan for college, which was very helpful to us. Often, qualifying for honors and AP classes is dependent on your gradepoint average in each subject, so if your grades are good enough it shouldn’t be a problem.
If you feel you’re not getting much help from your guidance counselor, then perhaps try speaking with some of the teachers in your strongest subjects(?) And yes there are some great books out there – some of which list what you need to do and when.
Also, band, marching band, jazz band, etc are nothing to scoff at, and hopefully something that you enjoy as well!
