Class Schedule Help - Confused

Pre-College Issues High School Life
1

<p>Hello all,</p>

<p>I'm very concerned about my schedule for my sophomore year and was wondering if I could have some help. </p>

<p>Here is what my schedule is going to look like for next year (sophomore year):</p>

<ul>
<li>AP Human Geography </li>
<li>AP US Government and Politics</li>
<li>AP Physics B</li>
<li>AP Calculus AB</li>
<li>AP English Language and Composition</li>
<li>Pre IB Spanish II</li>
<li>Pre IB Chemistry </li>
</ul>

<p>Every class is mandatory except AP Human. I'm only taking it because I know so many others are loading up on AP classes (as well as taking 1+ AP[s] in the summer, while I'm taking PE online since that's mandatory; I'm not taking any AP classes over the summer). I want to increase my class rank. </p>

<p>I feel like I'm going to be overloaded with work. I want to take Photography I (counted as a regular, non-honors class) because it's a really easy A, it's fun, and I love photography. I think I'm pretty good at it, too. I want to take the class, but I know if I do, my rank isn't going to be as high because I won't be taking that AP elective (AP Human in this case).</p>

<p>I know rank isn't everything, but there are 411 people in my class and about 20 or less of them are going crazy with the APs. I want to be at least in the top 30 or 20 students in my class. I don't know if I can do that.</p>

<p>Please help me!</p>

<p>You are mandated to take AP Physics and Calc as a sophomore…?</p>

<p>You are ■■■■■-ish. :P</p>

<p>It’s not a joke, I’m in a program called MSE (Math, Science, and Engineering) where yes, it’s mandatory to take AP Physics B and AP Calculus AB as a sophomore.</p>

<p>LoseYourself,</p>

<p>how is it ■■■■■-ish if hes asking us on help on his college schedule…you make no sense.</p>

<p>Nevertheless…
You need to work up on your priorities. Just because other people are loaded with APs. doesn’t mean you should.Do what interest you…not just because its AP.</p>

<p>How are you taking PE…online.</p>

<p>You shouldn’t be too concerned about rank…you should take classes that you are interested in. Then everything will fall into place</p>

<p>Thanks, Loveispeac3. I think I’ll try to change my schedule in the fall.</p>

<p>PE online is through FLVS (Florida Learning Virtual School). It’s the dumbest class ever, but I rather take it online over the summer then change and get sweaty in school.</p>
