Am I on the right course?

<p>I am currently in 10th grade and I am choosing my classes for next year. So far my schedule looks like this:</p>

<p>AP Am Hist
AP Lang/Cmp
AP Art History
AP Chem
AP Comp Sci
AP Calculus AB
Chinese III</p>

<p>Do these classes put me on the right path to attend top tier schools such as Stanford, USC, UC Berkeley, etc.? (Most likely going to major in engineering/CS).
Also, what benefits does AP Art History offer and should I maybe replace it with another science such as AP Physics/AP Bio?</p>

<p>Yes. AP sciences are better unless you really want credit for art history (or you’re really interested in it)</p>

<p>That looks good, but are you sure you want to do basically all ap classes next year? Colleges really look at your junior year, so I wouldnt take so many. They can really throw off your gpa. Idk what you are capable of, but consider my advice. I would take ap art out. </p>

<p>I would recommend a science for you, but I recommend you to keep 6 ap classes</p>

<p>

No. They put you on the right track to be sort of competitive when you apply, as long as you also have really good test scores, ECs, recommendations, etc. </p>

<p>You’re already taking AP Chemistry and AP Computer Science, so it would be fine to take AP Art History and you don’t really “need” another science class. You might look into whether Art History would get you out of any distribution requirements at the colleges you want to apply to. </p>
