College course over summer or during the year?

<p>I was wondering, would it be better to take a course over the summer at a local college or take it during the school year, but it would be during senior year. I want to take an environmental science course, but I don't know if it would be better to take it at the local college over the summer, so I am able to show that I have a true interest in the subject and colleges would be able to see that, or take AP Environmental senior year, which would allow me to take the AP test, but colleges wouldn't see that because it would be after admissions. I can't self-study the AP because my guidance counselor won't let me...</p>

<p>probably looks better to take the class at your school since they offer it</p>

<p>besides, you should relax over the summer, i didn’t and it came back to bite me when i showed up at school all burnt out from not having a break</p>
