Why take a full load of APs?

I’m taking a lot of APs this year to prep for college. Since I’m doing pre-med+engineering, I need a really good GPA, so I’m probably going to choose to retake some classes I could have gotten out of. Plus, most med schools don’t accept AP credit as undergrad requirements.

Another benefit: AP classes really broaden your views and ideas. I’m taking 8 APs this year, for a total of 12. Taking all 3 AP sciences at the same time really gives you an idea of how everything in the world works(at least how it works scientifically).
