AP European History
IB Math Studies SL (1 year)
AP Statistics
AP Calculus BC
IB Biology HL (2 years)
IB Chemistry SL (1 year)
IB Physics SL (1 year)
AP Computer Science AB</p>
<p>AP U.S. History (10th)
AP U.S. Government (10th)
AP Psychology (10th)</p>
<p>AP Art Studio-Drawing (11th)
AP Calculus AB (11th)

Sorry, but that's a pretty tacky thing to say. Not to say that my high school was ultra-competitive, but it's pretty ridiculous to make such a generalization. After all, do you know the level of difficulty of every high school's honors track?</p>
<p>Honors at some schools are more rigorous than APs. (I'd consider my honors English class to be tougher than my AP psych class.)</p>

<p>OK, I admit; Tonyt88's and kyledavid80's posts have a point. But unless you or someone else explains it to me, your post makes absolutely no sense Abhi08544.</p>
<p>AP Bio
AP USH
AP Calc
AP lit
AP Studio Art</p>
<p>So this doesn't sound like a lot compared some other people's 26 APs
but here's the thing, I've never heard of anyone @ my school taking more than 5
we aren't offerred that many and many classes overlap
also our schedule is pretty constricting because we only have 5 classes a semester, and APs are only offerred for Juniors & seniors</p>
<p>IS THIS BAD?
w/the way my school is set up I have taken the most rigorous courseload, but compared to people form other schools it looks like I have slacked off.</p>
<p>no colleges look at what courses your school offers nad if you take most/all of the advanced courses they will see that you are trying.</p>

AP World
