Do colleges look at the type of classes you take your senior year?

<p>Ok let me tell you my little story.</p>

<p>I suffered from a temporary depression by the end of my 8th grade year. I told my parents that I wanted to take online classes for my 9th grade instead of going to my horrible ghetto neighborhood high school. When I was registering for FLVS, I wasn't aware of all the AP/HONORS classes and their significant or how important it could be to take them. I earned a GPA of 3.5 my freshmen year all A's and B's. That year I decided to apply to technical/magnet school in my area. I was accepted so I started my sophomore year there (2012-2013). Since I hadn't been there my freshmen year, I hadn't had the opportunity to plan my classes for my sophomore year with my counselor. I still wasn't aware of AP classes and stuff. I regret so much not haven't learned more about it. By the end of my sophomore year, I had gained a little bit more knowledge about ap classes, I talked to my counselor and told her that I really liked US History and Math and that I wanted to take APUS and honors classes, so she said she was going to put me in advanced classes next year (junior year). So fall 2013 I started my junior year, but I wasn't placed in APUSH like she had told me, instead I was placed in honors us history, honors math and honors english. I thought it was ok. Now that I was planning about college and have decided on what I want to major in (Computer Science) I learned that even my state college (FSU) and FU are really tough to get in, especially for a student like me who has a 3.6 UW GPA and a 3.77 W :/</p>

<p>I planned my classes for next year, I will be taking AP CALCULUS, AP COMPUTER SCIENCE (I'M REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THIS CLASS, IT SOUNDS SO FUN ^_^) AP GOVERNMENT/ECONOMICS, AND THE REST WILL BE HONORS.</p>

<p>My question is, will colleges look at my senior class? because if they do, that would be great!!! ^_^</p>

<p>SAT: Took it this month, first time, haven't gotten my scores yet
ACT: took it for the first time in April, got a 26 (but will take it again, currently practicing)</p>

<p>yeah this is a little bit of my story, and how frustrated I feel now ;(</p>

<p>Yes, they look at your senior classes.</p>

<p>Take the APs, do your absolute best, and yes, the colleges will see the increasing rigor of your classwork. Senior year is absolutely a factor in their decisions.</p>

<p>Yes</p>
