I want to take physics, but would I be to much b/c I’m also taking AP Bio and Chem in preparation for IB Bio, Junior year. PLEASE HELP!
I think you are going about this all wrong. You are looking to fit in AP classes, when really you should make sure you get through the base curriculum.
For an a typical “honors” student, you shoudl take Honors Bio, Honors Chem, Honors Physics and then an AP version of a science.
You don’t need to take AP Bio to get ready for IB Bio. Your Bio in 9th grade shoudl suffice. Take Chem and regular/honors Physics next year if you want to double up on science. Then for IB, thake IB Bio and perhaps a nother science if you are a STEM person.
Thx sm! I think I’m just going to take chem b/c my school only offers the AP version of Physics.
