What is the maximum classes you can have?

<p>In my school, I happen to land with a guidance counsiler that never puts me in the courses I want esp. when I’m applicable to receive them. She’s like you already have 7 class + lunch so you can’t have more classes or you have to drop a class. But my friend has like two or three EXTRA electrives w/ his 7 classes. What should I do??? </p>

<p>Second, Today was the last day of school (Regents week in NY) But my Math teacher never changed my grade from 90 to a 92 to get into honors next year, what should I do? Should I change it? If so, Am I allowed to go to the beginning of the next year to my old math teacher to change my grade to a 92???</p>

<p>Where I live, it depends on too many factors. The normal number of year-long classes is seven. Add one if you take early bird, and another if you take the online Shakespeare class. This isn’t counting semester classes.</p>

<p>Does your school have a system of parent overrides? If you get a 90 and didn’t get into honors, you can probably get your parents to request for you to switch.</p>

<p>The maximum at my school is eight. I think 2-3 electives + 7 classes = overboard. I mean, if he can handle it, then fine, but I don’t think I could do that.</p>

<p>Ask your math teacher(s) (current and/or former, I guess) to help you out if the GC doesn’t take action.</p>

<p>8 classes total…that’s all my schedule fits
Math: AP Calc AB
Science: AP Physics C Mechanics
English: AP English
Tech: AP Comp Sci A
Gym: Fitness IV
Elective: AP Econ
Elective: AP Stats
Elective: AP US History</p>

<p>The maximum we can have is 7 classes + lunch (lunch is required for everyone). The only exception is that someone could take night classes at the locall CC or evening classes at our high school.</p>

<p>Maybe your friend’s extra electives does not conflict with his/her schedule??? Usually it is the academic core classes that seem to conflict with one another. I don’t think it would be very polite to ask your teacher in the beginning of the year to change your grade to a 92. The teacher would probably wonder why it took you the whole summer to ask her to change the grade. Lots of teachers stay an extra day to clean up their rooms and finish finalizing grades; the teacher might be there tomorrow possibly. Also, I don’t mean to question you (don’t be offended), but did you really earn a 92, and she just forgot to change it, or do you just have a 90 and you want her to bump you up to a 92, in order for you to get into the honors classes?</p>

6

<p>6 CLASSES FTW!!!</p>

<p>I hate my school. Ginormous, public, and outfitted with a new, improved, six period day! </p>

<p>We used to have a seven-period day, but to save money, they moved it to a six period day the year I come. I’m so lucky.</p>

7

<p>I took 6 classes since my AP Physics class took 2 periods everyday :(</p>

8

<p>Well, I feel a little less alone now…</p>

9

<p>Block schedule: 4 first semester, 4 the second one.</p>

10

<p>7 classes I could take. >/</p>

11

<p>During school hours, we are only allowed to take four classes per semester, 8 per year. However, we are affiliated with CCS Web Academy and we are allowed to enroll in an additional two classes per semester. Sp the maximum, including the web academy, is 6 per semester, 12 per year.</p>

12

<p>We have 9 40 minute Periods in a day, but this include lunch and PE, so it’s really 7 classes a day.</p>

13

<p>Thanks for your comment. </p>

<p>Yes, I received high marks on my test grades for that marking period. It came out to like 91.6 so it’s like a 92. </p>

<p>Second, About the schedule, she said since I already have an elective, I can’t take another. </p>

<p>This is my schedule for next year (It sucks so don’t don’t expect a lot):</p>

<p>-English 5H
-Math B 2/3 R
-Physics H
-US History H
-Latin 5 H
-Swimming
-Lunch
-Humanities

  • College NOW Computer Programming </p>

<p>I wanted to take AP Statistics but she said schedule’s too full and I told her to replace it w/ lunch and she said I might need that for " Physics Lab" but I can always take lab after school since I have a free per. after school???</p>

14

<p>In my school the maximum is six classes. However, if you have trouble getting your credits you can take an extra class.</p>

15

<p>wow most people only have 7 or 8 class’s. I have 9 class’s and another 2 class’s which are independent study class’s. I could have another extra class as an early gym period but decided not to.</p>

16

<p>11 classes a day!!! I got four of them, but the classes are pretty fastly moving. They cover material for one year in one semester.</p>

17

<p>We can have eight classes, four a semester in block scheduling. But MOST people take electives and the talented kids take a block of some kind of music each semester and still got into top schools without taking 8 fricking AP courses or even 7. More like the 3-5 range, from what I saw. So they’d take 6 actual classes, not only AP. If you have no music and have gone through the gym reqs, you can have 8, just not silmultaneously.
KidNovelist, have you published anything?</p>

18

<p>I think the max in my school is around 14-16
some of the ap’s are double blocked so that u can have them all year
then there’s gov/econ and health/ BPE</p>

19

<p>we can fit seven but only like 2% of kids take seven (and those are the artists that take all the art electives, not the smart overachiever kids). most take 5 or 6.</p>

20

<p>About 99% have 6 but some have 7 (only some teachers offer a 7th) + as many online & dual enrollment as one can handle.</p>
