<p>I was just urged by the current AP Art History teacher to take it next year since i did not initially sign up for it. It is historically known as a very rigorous course and I am already taking AP Calculus, AP Spanish, AP English, Chemistry and Anatomy next year so I took Psychology for one semester and Discovering Foods(home ec) for the other semester and kept a study hall. Now though I am reconsidering my decision and am just wondering how much of a difference this will make with college admissions if i take it other than the two semester classes?</p>
<p>Uh…well with that schedule I wouldn’t recommend it. It was pretty easy for me but it required large amounts of memorization and studying. If you don’t think you can handle that, then don’t take it.</p>
<p>My daughter is taking AP art history on top of 5 other AP’s. I think it requires more work than all the other courses combined and has definitely made for a stressful senior year. I don’t know that it will make any difference to the colleges unless you are trying to get into HYPS etc.</p>
<p>I think i could prolly handle it and for college i’m just trying to get into the best school that I can get a full ride or substantial aid in and I’m sure it couldn’t hurt!</p>
