I’m a junior right now and I need to sign up for my classes next year. My parents don’t want me to take a too rigorous course load because of college applications and all that. I have most of them figured out, I’m just iffy on some:
AP Literature and Composition
AP Biology
Science Research II
Spanish IV
Personal Finance/Concepts of Psychology
Human Anatomy and Physiology
Western Civilization or a Study Hall?
My parents want me to take a study hall so I have more free time, but I thought most colleges wanted 4 years of every core subject?
And I also have the option of taking Calculus III in an online course, but my parents also think that I’ll have too much work with all those classes and college applications, plus tennis in the fall. What do you guys think?
Nobody our in cyberspace can know who hard a load this is for you. It depends upon your aptitude and the rigor of these classes which can differ by school. Are you interested in Western Civilization? If you have interest, take it. If not, don’t.
