<p>I have super scheduling conflicts for my senior year. Idk what to do.</p>
<p>all i know is it is impossible for me to take AP chem, AP physics C, and AP calc BC together.</p>
<p>i'm pretty keen on keeping calc BC and AP chem. and my schools AP bio classes are filled up so idk whether ill get that or not.</p>
<p>what should i do!</p>
<p>which looks better for a prospective biomedical engineering major</p>
<p>A) calc BC, AP chem, elective i do not know yet (i am hoping i will be able to get AP bio and drop french but that is not guaranteed since as i mentioned before it is filled up)</p>
<p>Option b) definitely looks better, but I’m confused as to how that helps you because you said it’s impossible for you to take all three next year, correct?</p>
<p>when i said all three that is Calculus BC. the one in option B is calculus AB, which would not conflict since there are more sections of calculus AB</p>
<p>I was joking, but seriously it really doesn’t matter. Option B is probably more rigorous but taking Option A wouldn’t hurt you at all for Cornell either. If there is one thing I’ve learned it’s that adcoms aren’t going to go through your transcript with a fine tooth comb. Hell, I look at my transcript and the only thing I come away with is the general idea that I took some APs, some honors, and did well in them. They really won’t care if you took ONE MORE AP in the long run.</p>
<p>Ahhhh, my bad! Sorry I missed that, kinda skimmed through rather quickly. ^^;; Accidentally looked @ nd09’s post, maybe…</p>
<p>Calc AB instead of BC isn’t going to put you at a disadvantage. That said, an elective related to biomedical engineering would show your interest and demonstrate why you’re a good fit for Cornell/that major.</p>
<p>Try asking your school if you can take the BC advanced placement test while taking the AB class. Of course, you’d need to self study the material, but I think it’s worth it to get all the credits you can. :)</p>
<p>But if you can get into AP Bio then option A looks good.</p>
<p>yup an AP Bio slot opened up! snatched that, so option A w/ bioo!</p>
<p>and for physics C I am just going to independently study (ill get text and resources from the physics C teacher of course bc i know him well)</p>
<p>also another dilemma i’m facing is whether to drop AP french for a lunch period…bc i would not take the AP exam for french even if i took the course. I heard its not hard to get an easy grade…but i personally am not a fan of taking a class just so u can land a good grade.
but with AP bio which is 1.5 hours everyday, add on 1.5 hours every other day for chemistry, and that’s 3 hours of science every other day. With no break during the day.</p>
<p>so question is, will it look bad if i drop french?</p>
