I’m not sure what you want then, from us or the teachers. Is your concern making high grades while taking so many AP’s? Part of scheduling higher level/AP classes is knowing your own students ability and tolerance for workload. For example, my 2011 grad in a vacuum was fully capable of getting an A in AP Spanish. The same with AP Government. However when you add the workload of AP Spanish, AP Government, to AP Lit, AP Physics, AP Calc one or all of those grades were going to suffer due to the workload. He had to decide which classes were most important to him, important to him personally in admissions, and build a schedule that had rigor where he could also succeed at a high level. </p>
<p>It doesn’t matter if you have rigor but not the success. It doesn’t matter if you have the aptitude in any one of the classes alone, you have chosen to stack them and now have to show the ability to juggle as you will in college. In the end my son chose AP Lit, AP Physics, AP Calc, Spanish 5 (non AP), and Government (non AP). This was the right mix for him and he was successful in the classroom and admissions. Another student with another goal (not an engineering hopeful perhaps) may have chosen differently. Some kids are cut out to take 5-7 APs/year. That’s fine if you are succeeding academically in all of them. If not, you’ve missed your goal.</p>
