<p>Pandapwner; 8.5 Physics C raised that rigorous bar…</p>
<p>Junior:</p>
<p>AP Biology
AP English Language
AP Spanish Language
AP United States History
Forensic Science
Functions/Statistics/Trigonometry*</p>
<p>*I have an extensive view of taking Pre Calculus Honors…but basically, I don’t know if I’m doing AP Statistics, AP Calculus AB (BC not offered), or even both. And if that possible scenario of me doing Pre Calculus Honors and then to AP Statistics only, I wasted so much commitment…it’ll look weird on my transcript too, imo. And btw! AP Calculus has nothing to do with my wanted majors, I’m considering it just for the sake of college admissions! I believe FST will prepare me for both APs. (: </p>
<p>9/10 Looks good! Is forensic science related to your intended field of study? And if you put AB (and self-studied BC), I would probably bump it up to a 9.5. The math is undoubtedly what is keeping me from giving you a 10. (BTW that Spanish Language as a Junior looks really good)</p>
<p>My revised HS plan:
Freshman:
AP Macroeconomics (1 semester); APs are typically never taken by freshmen at my school
PreCalculus Honors
English I Honors
Chemistry Honors
Biology Honors
Latin I Honors
Gym
Concert Band
Also took World History Honors online in the summer</p>
<p>Sophomore:
AP Calculus BC
AP US History
AP Chemistry
AP Physics 1
English II Honors
Latin II Honors
Symphonic Band Honors</p>
<p>Junior:
Multivariable Calculus (Honors)
AP Literature and Composition
AP Biology
AP Computer Science
Organic Chemistry I and II (Honors implied)
Latin II Honors
Symphonic Band Honors</p>
<p>Senior:
Differential Equations and Linear Algebra (Honors implied)
AP Latin IV
AP Language and Composition
AP US Government
AP Statistics
Speech Honors (Requirement)
Symphonic Band Honors
AP Art History
AP Physics C Mechanics
AP Physics C E&M</p>
<p>I’m also planning to self-study 7-9 additional APs spread out over my freshman-junior years. Many of them will have some overlap with classes I am taking (i.e. Comparative government, Microeconomics, European History, etc.).</p>
<p>Debating whether to fit AP Physics 2 in there somehow? Maybe in senior year? (I can technically fit two more classes into my senior year schedule since two of them will probably be online)</p>
<p>That plan looks really good. All you have to do now is to maintain good grades in all of those classes, which will be pretty hard. There’s no need to take AP Physics 2 if you are taking AP Physics C. Trust me. </p>
<p>I’m taking AP Physics 1 now and I’m taking AP Physics C next year. Colleges won’t care about 2 since you are taking C since C is much harder and more time-consuming. </p>
<p>@Hawkace Sweet thanks! Knowing that I don’t have to take Physics 2 is good!</p>
<p>Any suggestions for switching around stuff between junior and senior years? I could move AP Art or AP Physics C to junior year, as I’ll probably take those online. Does it seem like my junior year seems like it could use another challenging class, while my senior year has a lot of challenging classes?</p>
<p>Edit: in the schedule I posted, I forgot to add AP Human Geo and AP Environmental in junior year; they’re both one semester each, but not like it makes much of a difference (since they’re the easiest APs offered at my school). </p>
<p>@DigitalKing There’s a chance, but as of right now my intended majors is double major in Psychology/Sociology. I am also taking it as a break class and I am really interested in the class. </p>
<p>Trust me, if I had the option to take AP Calculus BC, senior year, I would, but I can’t. My school only offers AP Calculus AB and doesn’t offer self-study exams, apparently. I’m definitely doing at least 1 math AP senior year, maybe both. Like I said, I cannot do Pre Calculus because I don’t have the time to commit to it, unfortunately.</p>
<p>AP Physics I (or C; I still haven’t decided which one because I’m not sure which is better for pursuing a career in medicine)
AP Biology
AP Chemistry

<p>@elefish92 Well that sucks that your school doesn’t let you self-study. I would pursue the issue, unless it is something that they are ABSOLUTELY unable to change. Credit in BC is accepted nearly everywhere and is a nice level of accomplishment to reach in high school.</p>
<p>@mkread
9.5/10. Really solid, but:
Specific reason you’re taking ceramics? I mean, it’s not bad, but is it taking the place of something else you could/should take?
Is there an AP Computer Science course at your HS? At my HS, we can wave the prerequisite to take AP Computer Science and take it directly. Of course this may not be the case at your HS.
Best part is the fact that you have 2 AP languages in senior year. That’s amazing!</p>
<p>Well, I guess I’ll repost my schedule (with the corrections):</p>

<p>@DigitalKing It’s not a big deal actually - people have tried, but the school says that they just want us to pay attention in the classes we registered for, plus probably because they don’t want to spend more money than now. Yes, AP Calculus BC you get loads of credits from if you passed the exam. But it depends on what college you want to go to, and self-studying doesn’t seem as useful as it sounds, most colleges want you to take the highest rigor of classes you can as much as possible and doing at least a decent amount of performance in them, that’s all they really want.</p>
<p>@elefish92 Yes, that’s true; colleges do want to see you challenging yourself in the environment you are in. But sometimes challenging ones self past what is considered normal is a good idea… </p>
<p>@caltechdream Real good! Physics C and calc BC will be a pain though! Language and comp 9.5/10 (would be a 10 if you didn’t have a study hall; is it mandatory?)</p>
<p>My sophomore schedule:
AP Calculus BC
AP US History
AP Chemistry
AP Physics 1
AP Music Theory (Sem)
AP Human Geo (Sem)
AP Comparative Government (Sem)
Honors English II
Honors Latin II</p>
<p>@apandia human geo is a grad req for us (stupid, but whatever).
Your schedule is real good. I’m guessing your school doesn’t offer BC? If it does, you should take BC instead of Stats. Also, the consensus is chem is one of, if not the, hardest to self-study. I’m guessing your school doesn’t have chem either.
10/10 if your school doesn’t have BC or Chem. 9/10 if your school has BC and/or chem. </p>
<p>Um the person above me already rated so I’ll go ahead. Jeez this is super intimidating but

<p>Solid 8/10. Could be more rigorous, but a lot of it looks restricted by your school. AP Econ offered? Physics honors and/or Ap physics 1? Maybe Chem honors or Spanish 3.5 honors. (Each one of these non honors made me take .5 off; justifying my reasoning).
Well. I’ll let someone else post a schedule. </p>
<p>@elefish
7/10 - 8/10 depending on how difficult Intermediate Algebra is. Is this similar to Algebra 2 offered elsewhere? The rest of your schedule looks pretty solid though.</p>
