<p>It is unlikely you will get to be the Oregon state AP scholar with 8 AP exams. This award is for the most AP exams in total, not just in a single year. It is conceivable you will be competitive for this award if you complete your planned curriculum, but it is unlikely you will be able to claim it on your applications since you probably won’t be able to earn it until the close of your senior year. 8 AP exams will, however, qualify you for National AP scholar, which is earned by just a handful of sophomores across the country each year.</p>
<p>Calculus is conspicuous by its absence from your plan. Why avoid it?</p>
<p>I hasten to add, however, that a reviewer of your application might be given pause by your apparent need to collect so many AP exam scores. Before pursuing this, you might want to consider how you will make yourself look like a well-balanced and sincerely curious learner and not a test-driven performer. In other words don’t think that you can allow a large number of excellent test scores by themselves to make your case for admission.</p>
