<p>I really am not sure what type of Engineer I want to be in the future, but I narrowed it down to Mechanical or Biomedical. I am set to take AP Calc BC, AP Physics B & C, AP Computer Science, AP US, AP Econ, AP Lang, AP Lit, and AP Psych. Plus I have already taken AP Euro History and AP Stats. I'm wondering whether AP Bio or AP Chem will be better fitted for this slot? Also, any other suggestions will be welcome about my other courses! Thank you!</p>
<p>If you’re looking at engineering, especially the biomedial kind, either biology or chemistry will be beneficial. It honestly doesn’t matter, as both are great course which look good on transcripts. Colleges don’t necessarily want to see you “majoring” in high school…just go with your strengths and interests. Stats might not be the most pertinent course to engineering, but it is one of the “easiest” AP’s, so that’s something to think about. The rest of your schedule looks amazing, but don’t over do it! The person with the most AP’s doesn’t “win”! 
If those are your true interests, then great, but overloading your course load could negatively impact your grades, rather than boost them. Good luck!</p>
<p>Which of AP Biology or AP Chemistry will be more useful depends on the major and school (i.e. what credit they allow for AP scores). Would it be possible to do both (perhaps in place of some other one like AP Psychology)?</p>
<p>AP Physics B will be useless for an engineering student, since engineering requires calculus-based physics. Concentrate on AP Physics C, since it is sometimes accepted (more often for mechanics than E&M).</p>
<p>AP English Language and AP English Literature are often considered duplicates for credit against writing requirements, although if you take both, it gives you two chances to get a high enough score to place out of a writing requirement.</p>
<p>At some schools, introductory economics has micro and macro in one course, so you would need to take both AP Economics Micro and Macro to place out of it to take more advanced economics courses.</p>
<p>Mech doesn’t require any Bio, but both will require Chem.</p>
<p>If you get a 5 on the AP Chem exam, congrats, you get no credit in college. You can still take it to learn things from it to prepare you for college chem courses, which is a good idea. Same goes for Physics B. Don’t take Physics B unless your school only offers it.</p>
<p>AP Bio… might be the same story. But, still take it to learn things from it! It will help you in college! Plus if you find out that you don’t really like bio that much you can think twice about biomedical engineering.</p>
<p>take my advice- don’t overload on ap courses or else a majority of your facebook statuses in the fall will be “■■■ I HATE SCHOOL!”. trust me. with that in mind, i say definitely drop one of your physics courses, i recommend taking c over b if you are doing engineering. drop one of your english’s, i didn’t even know some high schools would allow you to take both at the same time (my school has you take lang junior yr and lit senior yr). definitely keep calculus and computer science though, those are great classes. and idk for you, but for me, i found ap chem to be one of the easiest classes i’ve ever taken and ap bio to be one of the hardest (not necessarily the content, but just the amount of work). since engineering is known to overload you with work, bio might be a better area (but chem is definitely better in my opinion :P)</p>
