<p>Hey,
I'm new here. I have a question:
My plan for junior year was to take the following courses:
AP Chem
AP English
AP US History 2
Pre-Calc H
French 4 H
FIne Art 2
I just found out that most of classes clash. AP Chem clashes with AP US Hist.2 and AP Eng. clashes w/ French 4 H. Now I have to make a decision. To possibly get permission to skip a french course, or make it adjust [somehow] and drop AP Hist. to H. Would this look bad on college application? Or instead of AP Chem I could take Physics H in lieu of AP Physics [for senior yr]..I need major help.
Thanks</p>
<p>Your guidance counsler will note in his or her letter of reccomendation that your class selection had conflicts. I would choose the classes that you’re more interested in and maybe planning on majoring in when making decisions.</p>
<p>Are you asking whether the colleges will be upset that you didn’t take two different classes that meet at the same time? Is that your question?</p>
<p>They won’t. What, do you think Harvard expects all its applicants to have used Time Turners?</p>
<p>You should take French 4 next year, unless you enjoy French or want to major in French. 4 years of a foreign language is plenty. Are you able to take AP Physics or AP Biology instead of AP Chem this year, so you can take AP English?</p>
<p>AP US history 2? You guys spend two classes on that test? How… wasteful.</p>
<p>Since AP US is incredibly easy and Chem is not, I would say that you can easily self-study for AP US is you so wish, so Chem is probably the better deal.</p>
<p>Of course, I also think Chem is incredibly boring.</p>
<p>Thank You so much…The French 4 H and AP Eng conflict is solved b/c I found out that my school is combining French 4 and French 3 because there aren’t enough people taking it. And for AP Chem and AP US 2, I decided that since I’m more into Chem I’m going to take US 2 H instead of AP and I’ll go for AP Chem…I hope I’m making the right decision. My guidance counselor said she’ll write about the scheduling prob in my transcript.</p>
<p>And for Physics AP, in my school you must take AP Physics and Calc together–so that’s my plan for senior year…</p>
