<p>What would a college favor? Taking an "easy" AP such as Psychology or Human Geography or participating in Marching Band/Concert Band. I will also be taking 3 other APs (Calc AB, Biology, and US History). Would college prefer the EC or the GPA boost? </p>
<p>I could probably make the top band for concert season this year if I continue with the band program but I will not have a leadership role. I have already been in band and marching band for the past two years.</p>
<p>So what is your opinion?</p>
<p>Which of these will make YOU happiest? If you truly enjoy band, stick with it.</p>
<p>I’ve always heard not to choose things that you think will ‘look’ better to colleges, but instead to follow your passion and if your passion is, indeed, marching band, then by all means go for it.</p>
<p>I don’t know if there is that much difference between taking 3 vs. 4 APs. If band is important to you, take it. If you enjoy band, you will need it as a break from the APs. When you have a difficult schedule, it is always good to take one thing that you really enjoy.</p>
