<p>So basically last year (junior year) I took AP calc AB (first junior in my school to do so), AP chem, AP English language, and AP Us history. I had high averages in all the classes but I got 1’s on the chem and calc exams and 2’s on the English and US history exam, I don’t know why, like it wasn’t too much- if it was I wouldn’t have gotten 95 or higher on all the classes as a final grade. And last year I had AP world, AP psychology, and AP Bio and got 4’s and one 3. I plan to do early action to Harvard but I don’t know what AP’s I should take and not take- like should I take Calc over?
Heads up: I plan to major in economics So AP micro and macro are must.</p>
<p>It’s great that you were the first junior to take AP Calc but maybe you weren’t ready for it…
It was most likely grade inflation because there is no way you got a 95 in those classes and got 1’s. Chem is known for being difficult though so don’t feel too horrible about the 1.
But colleges are going to see that you took 4 APs and didn’t pass any of them, so I suggest that you self study for English Lang, Calc and US History (you already took the class so just get a review book for each to prepare for the exams) and take AP Macro and Micro during the school year.</p>
