<p>Hi.</p>
<p>Is it a disadvantage in the college admission process if your school only has 6 classes per day, as compared to 7 or 8 in some other schools? That allows for more AP and Honors Classes in those other schools, but there's really nothing that I can do to catch up on those, since we don't have as many classes.</p>
<p>From what I’ve heard, colleges tknow and take into account how many classes your school has, whether or not they offer AP classes, etc. They just want to see you take as rigourous a course you can handle with your circumstances.</p>
<p>My high school is on a block schedule, so I have 4 classes a day. The number of classes does not matter – I’m sure colleges will take your academics within context.</p>
<p>^
Yeah, but you end up taking a total of 8 classes per year, right? I have block scheduling and we switch classes halfway through the year. </p>
<p>OP, how many credits do you graduate with? Four years of math, four years of English, four years of foreign language, all that?</p>
<p>@halyconheather My school has four quarters with four classes each–a total of 16 blocks. Some classes take up four blocks but most take up one or two.</p>
<p>my school isn’t a block and has 6 classes a day(math, science, social studies, language arts, and 2 electives).</p>
<p>Our schedule is like Yangmaster’s. We have 4 classes a day. But, AP classes only start on the first block, not the second. As a result, we can only have 3 or 4 AP classes. I am in EC so I can only get 3 in a year, which is typical here.</p>
<p>I graduate with 4 math, 4 english, 4 science, 3 required(4 optional) social studies, and 2 electives per year, one of them being a world language, and the other one a career pathway or health or an ap course(starting from 11th grade).</p>
