Survivable?

I'm not sure how much people know about IBs around here. </p>

Your workload won't be too awful, this coming from someone who took AP Calc and all honors, pre-IB classes (chem, physics, english, history, spanish)

Would it be better if I took AP Micro first semester, and AP Marco second semester? I feel AP CS AB might be a science/math overload. I could self-study though. </p>

<p>I realized that if I took the exams for:
AP Cal BC
AP CS AB
AP Physics B
AP Psychology
AP Micro
AP Macro
AP Stats
And did well, I could be a national AP scholar. (Assuming I did well of APAH this year) I could also take AP CS A--which would better my chances at being State AP Scholar... I know that's bad but if I make a 3+ my county will give me my money back.</p>

202

<p>Schedule:
Calc II - Georgia Tech ( school offers it this following year )
IB Physics
AP Chemistry
AP Statistics

AP Literature
AP European History
And another class I forget. haha</p>

203

<p>Junior Year:
AP Calculus BC
AP US History
AP Chemistry
English 11
French I</p>

<p>Will I survive?
I took honors Chemistry, and rudimentary Calculus last year.</p>

204

<p>Rudimentary Calculus?? What on earth? Is this similar to AB? If so, then BC should be a breeze...</p>

205

<p>He probably means precalculus. </p>

<p>@Portishead</p>

<p>Expect to work a bit in Calculus, but you should be fine; Calculus isn't all that hard.</p>

206

<p>portishead,
i don't think you will have much problem, just look over a few calc
stuff over the summer. Otherwise, you'll be fine(french I and english 11 at my school are a joke)</p>

<p>my senior schedule:</p>

<p>AP Calculus AB(not going for BC)
AP English
AP Psychology
Honors Neurobiology
AP Econ

207

<p>meh...my schedule looks so weak compared to you guys
AP English IV (Lit) - standard 1st semester at my school

AP Physics
AP Calc BC
+ 2 choirs</p>

208

<p>I have a question about by schedule for next year. I took 2 APs sophomore year and 4 APs junior year. I am worried b/c I am only taking 3 APs senior year. Currently I am signed up to take: </p>

<p>AP English Lit
AP Economics (both micro and macro)
AP Biology
French 6 Honors (I took both APs, this class will be an independent study)
Calculus
Creative Writing</p>

<p>I was wondering: should I drop creative writing and take Music Theory AP instead?
Also- what about studying AP US Gov. online? (Should I do that instead of music theory or alongside it?) </p>

<p>Thank you so so so much!!!!!!</p>

219

<p>Senior Year:</p>

<p>AP Calc BC
AP Physics
AP Psychology

Gym(1st semester only)
Anatomy and Physiology
Medical related careers/ AP government/ AP computer science</p>

<p>I plan on applying to BSMD programs. I have been told that medical related careers is a very general introduction to medicine(CPR etc...) so I am considering takind AP government (just finished regular in summer school) or AP computer science. I have already taken AP bio, AP chem and AP english lang, just so you dont recommend those ...</p>

<p>Which class do you think i should choose? AP government, AP computer science or medical related careers?</p>

220

<p>^i doubt medical related class will help that much other then getting u more interested into medicine. Its not relaly gonna affect admissions. u shud take AP Gov or Ap Comp cuz u can get credit and be ahead in college.</p>
