So, I’m faced with the difficult choice of choosing between Spanish and AP Chem this year in my senior schedule. Our school just went through some layoffs so I’m basically forced to choose between the two.

Reason why I would take…

IB Spanish: I’m in the second year of a 2 year course (but I would still get credit for the first year), it would complete 4 years of language in high school, I would be able to take the IB test and get credits, and it would probably get me out of most college’s language requirements. Also, I’m already taking AP Bio and AP Physics B&C,

AP Chemistry: I want to major in the sciences, chances are it’ll get me more credits in college if I do well on the AP test, and apparently it looks really good on a transcript.

Thanks!
