AP Biology vs AP Statistics

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>It's that time of year where I have to schedule for next year. I'm currently taking AP Chem and APUSH as well as self-studying for AP Psych.</p>

<p>Next year, I'm taking AP Comp Science, AP Calc BC, AP Physics C, AP Economics (Micro and Macro), and AP English (Lit.).</p>

<p>I really want to visit every country in the world. That's my dream. My passion is still undecided between Business, Medicine, and Engineering.</p>

<p>Considering all of this, which AP course is best suited to me?</p>

<p>(My dad's reasoning is that colleges have really good professors for statistics so I can take it in college; What do you think?)</p>

<p>I’d say AP Stats.

  • Bio is more useful for med and Stats is more useful for business careers and pretty much anything else.
  • Stats is easier, Bio is harder/more time consuming. Your entire schedule is going to be made up of APs, including 3 harder APs (Calc BC, Physics C, and English Lit). You might want to take another easy AP - Stats. You’ll also have to do a ton of reading for English Lit, and you might not want to do even more for Bio.</p>
