<p>Hi guys, I'm signed up to take a bunch of AP classes next fall and had a quick question about schedule changes... So far I'll be taking:</p>

<p>AP U.S. Government
AP Comp. Govt./Politics
AP Microeconomics
AP Spanish Language
AP English Lit/Comp
AP Statistics
AP European History</p>

<p>I was wondering, if I'm looking to apply to top universities and major in PolSci, should I drop any of these classes in order to take AP Psychology, AP Calculus, or Honors Physics?</p>

<p>Additionally, I'm considering buying a PR book for AP Macroeconomics and taking the test... I might minor in Economics or just change my major to it because I'm interested in Government but have a certain knack for math. Thanks!</p>

<p>idk if it helps, but my friends took macro and micro, and they said macro is much much easier than micro</p>

<p>^^ therefore, it's easier for him to self-study it. Sounds like a good plan. A lot of people do it. At my school, it's reverse. We have the macro class, and some people self-study micro.</p>

<p>I would do calc over statistics, but that's me.</p>

<p>Ya or drop one of your history classes to make room for Physics... never hurts to throw in a natural science class.</p>

<p>AP Psych is a relatively easy AP. AND the information is very interesting so it’s a joy to learn. I suggest you take that one and take out one of the Government AP’s.</p>

<p>AP Calc would be a help at any of the top universities. Idk specifically about your major, but since AP Micro is an easier AP you could switch it out.</p>

<p>I would drop stats and take Calc</p>
