<p>So I have to make a decision between AP chem or my fourth year of AP French... What would you recommend for college apps at schools like USC and UCLA?</p>
<p>Schedule so far
AP lit
AP Calc
AP Gov/Econ
AP physics C
Advanced Anatomy H
AP Chem/AP French</p>
<p>I’d say AP French. 
Schools LOVE AP foreign languages.</p>
<p>Yeah, I would say AP French as well. That would make your schedule very well-rounded since you already have AP Physics C.</p>
<p>What about if I’m thinking about applying to 7 year med programs? Don’t they require upper level chem?</p>
<p>In that case, I’d suggest self-studying it. I’d still take AP French.</p>
<p>I would say AP French. I don’t think AP Chem is that hard to self-study for the AP Exam. However, you might want to talk to the AP Chem teacher about lab experience if you consider self-studying.</p>
<p>Eh, I’d say AP French is much easier to self-study for. Chem you have to learn actual stuff, whereas French you can practice leisurely by reading books, watching movies, etc.</p>
<p>Maybe drop AP Gov/Econ and and put AP French there instead? That way you can take AP Chem too, and AP Gov is pretty easy and can even be self studied</p>
<p>Gov is required to graduate though. It looks like chem because my school is most likely going to combine French 3 and 4 because of lack of interest in French 4. Is the lack of ap French going to be an issue?</p>
