I am a rising junior planning for my senior year classes. And I needed some advice on what class I should take becuase i am really debating between Honors Java Programming and Hon Marketing Management. I know i would enjoy both classes becuase i have the java teacher this year for AP Computer Science Principles and the businesss teacher for Project Management. I want to major in International Relations. I am leaning towards Java Programming because it seems more helpful and useful in life but i have taken business classes since freshman year and i might doule major in economics so idk. I am also signed up to take
AP Government
AP Calculus AB
AP Environmental Science
AP Spanish Language
H PIano Lab 3
DE College Comp (College class at a local university- English)(same level as AP)

and now i have one more elective to decide and i just want to know the pros and cons of each on my college application (Ivies - Stanford - Uchicago schools).

In terms of applications, both Java and Marketing should be fine. I don’t believe colleges will like one more than the other. It seems though that you have trouble picking between them. Personally, I would go with Java because I agree with you. I do think it will be useful for International Relations compared to Marketing Management. Since you like both classes and know what you want to major it, I recommend an elective that corresponds with the major you wish to do.

Have a good day!

Agree Java will be more useful. Marketing will likely be easier, so think on terms of balancing your workload. Neither will make it break your application.

I just noticed when looking on my post, sorry for my grammar mistake.

@MYOS1634 By the way, I agree with your answer.

Have a good day!
