Course load for senior year?

Applying to College
1

<p>Ok next year I'll be a senior and I have to register for my classes for the fall so I was wondering what you all thought of my possible senior year course load considering it's a factor in college admission. Should I take more classes and credits? </p>

<p>8 period day (.5 credit = 1 semester course) </p>

<p>AP Chemistry (1 credit)
AP Biology (1 credit)
AP Calculus BC (1 credit)
AP English Lang. and Lit. (1 credit)<br>
Spanish 4 Honors (1 credit)
Financial Economics (.5 credit)
World Religions (.5 credit)
Christian Lifestyles (.5 credit) * required</p>

<p>Are you sure you can handle 4 APs? If so, it looks fine to me.</p>

<p>I'm pretty sure I can. I'm taking 3 APs this year.</p>

<p>yeah although thats a lot of classes. if your school has "senior release", i'd try to not take so many classes, unless you are very confident you can do well in them.</p>

<p>that's actually not a lot of classes at my school. the minimum amount of credits required is 6.1 and I have 6.6. So a lot of people will be taking more classes and credits than me next year. And I don't think we have "senior release". I don't even know what that is.</p>
