<p>@dfaf2dfafd You’re already taking 4 science course so I think it would be okay to take Macro/Micro. Besides, Enviro is regarded as an easy course despite the AP name. If you want the GPA boost and challenge then I say go for it.</p>
<p>Which is the most rigorous for my senior year? (rate both please thanks )</p>
<p>1:
-AP Bio (linked with a lunch or study hall for extended lab purposes)
-AP Gov
-Honors Physics
-AP English (both)
-AP Italian
-Honors Precalc</p>
<p>2:
-AP Gov
-Honors Physics
-AP English (both)
-AP Euro
-AP Stats
-AP Italian
-Honors Precalc</p>
<p>@jkpascale16: It comes down to AP Bio v. AP Euro and AP Stats, so I’d say that the second schedule is a little more rigorous. 7.5/10 and 8/10. Taking both AP English courses is impressive, but the rest of your schedule is pretty lackluster (I mean, it’s great, but nothing extraordinary.), and it would help to have calculus or AP Physics.</p>
<p>If anyone else wants to rate my schedule, it’s at the top of this page. I’ve decided to replace AP Music Theory with AP EnvSci, though.</p>
<p>Senior year:
AP calc bc
Ap stat
Ap spanish language
3 semester-long history senior honors courses
1 independent study
English 4 honors (maybe AP english lit)</p>
<p>^9
And my schedule was never rated so I’m posting again… </p>
<p>These are hopefully going to be my schedules, but I don’t know for sure how they’ll work out. I may post again soon with an updated schedule.</p>
<p>Junior:
AP English Lang
PreCalc
AP Chemistry
Honors Physics
AP World History
AP Psych / Forensic Science (Each for a semester)
Spanish 4
AP Stats</p>
<p>Senior:
AP English Lit
AP Calc BC
AP Biology
AP Art History
AP European History
AP Spanish Language
Maybe self study AP Physics C or I’ll take AP Environmental</p>
<p>Here’s my Junior schedule for next semester.</p>
<p>AP Physics C
AP USH
AP Calc BC
AP Lang
Spanish III
I’m also going to take Chem, but I haven’t decided on whether or not to take it AP, if I don’t I think I’m going to take it senior year along with AP Bio.</p>
<p>@shakespeare1234 9/10, wow. It’s really impressive that you’re taking AP Chemistry and AP Calculus AB in sophomore year. What electives are you planning to take? </p>
<p>10/10 good luck!! O_O
Junior schedule for next year:
Academic Decathlon (its a zero period class for studying for the actual competition)
IB History of the Americas Higher Level 1

IB Computer Science Higher Level 1
IB Mathematics Standard Level 1

Pre-AP Japanese 3
IB Creativity, Action, Service
SAT prep (one semester)
IB Theory of Knowledge (one semester)</p>
<p>Pre-IB AM History (APUSH equivalent! Most get 4’s or 5’s)
AP Gov (sem./online)
AP Econ (sem./online)
AP Bio
Pre-IB English II H

<p>Changed my schedule.
Senior Year:

Music Appreciation
Social Dance
AP French
Advanced Women’s Choir
English Lit
Probability & Statistics
Student assistance with current AP Euro teacher</p>
<p>Very light on math (easiest class for a senior) and dropping science altogether, but to be fair I want to major in music, I’m a total fine arts/social science person. It was a sad decision to drop AP Lit, but I had to make a sacrifice for a class I know I can do well in, French.</p>
<p>@nicobella Apologies for a 2 week late reply lol…but Psych is definitely an easy AP, first year my school is doing it, I just love social science. Music Theory is one of the hardest AP classes, especially at my school, it’s incredibly rigorous and difficult if you aren’t a naturally musical person. It’s not a joke - it’s essentially a complex blend of memory skills, intuition, math, and natural ability. Even regular Music Theory kicks most people’s behinds at my school :P</p>
<p>@codexsplanade: 7/10 for only taking 3 APs and dropping science. Also, did you seriously just give @apandia a -3 for not taking a fine arts class? Honestly, I don’t even think that deserves a -.5 if the rest of the schedule is rigorous, which it appears to be.</p>
<p>I don’t do number ratings often, but I’ll instead do a set of criticisms:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Which econ? I just finished my AP Micro and Macro test, and I’d say Macro was wayyy better, though tbh, I thought it would be the hardest one</p></li>
<li><p>Are you taking the AP US History test as well then?</p></li>
<li><p>Psych is the better one to self study of the two. Not easy, but more memorization and logic involved</p></li>
<li><p>Are you good at Spanish, or are you just taking IB Spanish SL because a counselor told you to? College level Spanish classes are lightyears ahead of normal high school stuff; really don’t take it unless you feel that you could live in Spain and do the same things as you do on a day-to-day basis.</p></li>
<li><p>Self-studying AP Human Geography or taking the course online would be a really nice way to round off that schedule</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Lastly, I’m sorry for the trolls on your schedule. Take fine arts if you want to, but don’t if that’s not you. </p>
<p>Remember, as long as you have a moderately high level schedule, colleges really don’t care. They don’t nitpick on individual grades and they don’t make a rejection based on whether or not you took Ceramics [example] instead of another course. Really, the point of my questions are to just make the next year easier and more comfortable. There’s no point in doing something you don’t want to do.</p>
<p>@Apollo11 - 1. AP Macroeconomics
2. I will most definitely take the APUSH exam.
3. Will certainly do AP Psych regardless of the circumstances.
4. I’m taking Spanish 3 H Pre-IB right now, my teacher (Foreign Language Head of Department, teaches Spanish 3-5(AP) ) said that I’m already at the level of the kids taking IB Spanish SL. I’m pretty good at Spanish in my opinion,
5. I look at APHUG as a puppet AP course. Are you sure?</p>
<p>I’m not a fine arts guy; I enjoy STEM subjects avidly. </p>
<p>Thanks for the scrutiny, you’ve been a great help man. :)</p>
<p>AP Physics C: Mechanics (2 Blocks; Lab and Lecture)
AP Calculus BC
AP Human Geography
AP Comparative Government
AP English Literature
Advanced Symphonic Band</p>
<p>Plus I’m doing out of school independent studying for French - I took AP this year and my school doesn’t offer French Lit, but I want to keep up my studies</p>
