A few questions about my chances

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I'm looking at schools like Georgetown, Duke, and George Washington.
I have a lot of community service work and have gotten A's in every class except Honors Geometry and Spanish 2. I have a few issues though.</p>

<p>Freshman year I took college prep Social Studies and English. The next year I moved up to honors, and my Junior year I was in AP for both. Unfortunately, I missed the chance to take AP European History my sophomore year. How much will this hurt me.</p>

<p>AP Classes: APUSH, AP Biology, AP language and Comp, Microeconomics?, AP Physics, AP US Government, AP Stat, and AP english literature and Comp. </p>

<p>All A's and 5's on national exams</p>

<p>I took a Microeconomics class Junior year that was graded on an AP scale, but was not called AP Microeconomics. How will colleges look at this class?</p>

<p>Thanks for the help I appreciate it.</p>

<p>I think it seems like you have a full transcript and some good extracurricular work, schools usually talk to you about classes you’ve taken and grades you’ve gotten if theyre considering you so you can always talk to them about it and discuss why you chose those courses, etc. </p>

<p>Good luck with your admissions process =)</p>

<p>I guess it has a reason not to call it an AP class. It may be shown on the school profile. Perhaps it will be viewed as an accelerated or honor class. Course load will be a consideration but there is no absolute rule. If you are taking mostly challenging classes, you are fine. Missing one AP would cause you nothing. You have at least 7 AP classes. That is definitely above average even for some very competitive high schools.</p>
