AP Courses

Applying to College

<p>Hi im a freshman soon to be a sophomore and I had a few questions.
Over high school i plan to take a total of seven AP courses. My school's policy is that if you take an AP science, you can only take one other AP that year; otherwise, you can take three. I plan to take AP Euro with Bio in 10th, Calc BC with Chemistry in 11th, and Latin, Compsci, and Statistics in 12th grade.</p>

<p>My school offers a total of 15 AP's.</p>

<p>My question is , if I take only 7 overall, will that be enough to show colleges that I took a challenging courseload, or should I take some more AP's online?</p>

<p>Also, are all the courses that I am taking worth it? (ik its subjective but i just want to know your opinion)</p>

<p>Thanks for the advice!</p>

<p>Your courses will be evaluated in the context of both the courses offered AND the policies your school has for when/how many classes can be taken.</p>

<p>Of importance is what category your HS GC marks on the CA SSR:</p>

<p>What kind of AP policy is that? At my school, you could take any AP course, as long as they fit in your schedule.</p>

<p>Anyway, you can notify the college in your application about how the school’s AP policy works; you shouldn’t be at a disadvantage.</p>

<p>The AP policy should either be stated in the HS profile or in the SSR that the GC fills out.</p>
