Rigorous enough for what?

Where are you applying?

Applying to LACs like Middlebury, Bates, Williams, etc., Don’t want to go into a laundry list of all Freshman/Sophomore/Junior classes, but those are all either honors or AP (except required PE, Health & Art). Running out of course options. (And well, it’s the beginning of the Senior year, so second guessing everything… breathing in - breathing out…)

The person to ask is your guidance counselor, not any one of us. Rigor is relative to what is offered in your HS.

The top tier colleges will want to see the guidance counselor check the box on the recommendation saying you have taken the most rigorous course-load available at your HS (which doesn’t mean taking every AP class – there is often some latitude in this). If the guidance counselor says that your prior and current HS schedules are sufficient to get that most rigorous box checked then you are fine.

thank you @happy1

Yes to what @happy1 posted. If you have already exhausted your other AP options and are just running out of courses to take, you should be fine. You may want to consider having your guidance counselor add something about that in their LOR.

Also why are you taking an bio course on line? Why not at your school where you can do a lab?

@bopper Already did that one…and have completed all the other science classes with labs.
