Chemistry

Test Preparation AP Sciences
1

I am a freshman in high school, and my school offers Honors Chemistry in tenth grade. I was thinking of skipping it over the summer at the local community college that offers it, and take either AP Physics 1&2 or AP Chemistry as a sophomore. I am doing this because I plan to become a doctor, and because I plan to complete the following science courses in high school:
-Honors Biology (9th grade)
-Honors Chemistry (10th grade or summer of 9-10)
-AP Chemistry (10th or 11th grade)
-Honors Organic Chemistry (11th or 12th grade)
-AP Physics 1&2 (10th or 12th grade)
-AP Biology (12th)
-Honors Anatomy and Physiology (11th)

I am afraid that if I don’t skip chemistry over the summer, I will no be able to fit all these science courses in my schedule in high school. I would then have to drop a couple science classes and take them in college instead. I also want to skip so that I don’t take too many AP courses in 11th grade, since I’ve heard that is the toughest year.
Any opinions?

Maybe take chem over the summer before the year you take AP Chem?

Study chemistry the summer before you take AP Chemistry. I did that, and it worked out pretty well in preparing me for the actual AP course. There are many resources online that you can use, and you can go to the library and get textbooks for extra reference. In my case, I found a copy of the regular chem book that my school uses online and outlined each chapter. Hopefully this helps!
