I’m curious to know how much a GPA boost would matter for senior year. In my school, AP Stats is quite easy and taught by a really great teacher. On the other hand, AP chemistry has a nice GPA boost that comes with lab. Since I’m a junior this year, I still want to maintain at least another AP class along with my senior schedule, but not get overwork like this year. If a senior year GPA boost means nothing as in freshman, sophomore, and junior year, then I might not want to take AP chem senior year. Basically asking myself if I want to choose the easier AP class or the nice GPA boost AP class during senior year. Any suggestions?
need more information. What is your planned major? What is your GPA? if your GPA is 4.3, and could be 4.35 if you take Chemistry, I don’t think the GPA boost is worth it. Personally, I would align to my expected major more. For example, if you are studying ChemE, take AP Chem. Math or CS, take AP Stat.
In my opinion, AP Stats easily. Statistics is something everyone should know, especially for a scientists. As a chemist, you would need to know statistics to analyze your experimental results.
