You have a rather intense schedule, both this year and next. Do you really want to take on that much?

What are your interests and possible direction? You have a heavy load in the social sciences (AP US History and Psychology this year, AP American Government, Comparative Government and Macroeconomics next year) but are also piling APs in calculus, statistics and physics. Are you doing that because you are interested in these topics, or because you are aiming to accumulate as many AP classes as possible to impress people?

I would re-assess and think about what matters to you. Take classes that turn you on. If theatre production excites you, then I think it would be a great balance to all the other stuff you are doing, but I’d personally re-evaluate your entire schedule in the context of your interests and long-term direction.
