<p>I took two science classes this past year (junior year), AP Chem and AP Physics. I am not planning on taking a science class next year, but I will be taking dual-enrollment math AND stats. Will this look okay for admissions? I technically have 4 science credits and will still be taking quantitative classes.</p>
<p>You’re fine.</p>
<p>Depends on the university and the major.</p>
<p>When we contacted Cornell because our student had done double science junior year, they still wanted to see a science senior year if our school had any left at all to take. This was for the school of engineering.</p>
<p>It depends on what science courses you have already taken, relative to the available offerings, and which colleges and majors you are applying for.</p>
<p>Have you already taken a biology course? If so, you should be fine. Most colleges do not require 4 years of science per se but do want you to have taken all three of the “core science” courses</p>
<p>Are Chem H (9th grade), Chem AP ( 10th grade), Bio H (10th grade), and Physics AP (11th grade) sufficient?</p>
<p>By the way, will colleges treat being the Chem TA (teacher’s aide) as taking a science class?</p>
<p>Steven those courses are fine, but being a TA does not count as taking the class. What will be on your transcript?</p>
<p>@shawnspencer, I took freshman biology, but won’t be taking AP Bio. Is that okay, given what I described in the original post?</p>
<p>I think that should be fine!</p>
<p>BrownParent, that’s what I thought too, and it’s probably going to say Teacher’s Aide on the transcript.
Even though being a TA does not count as taking the class, how do the top colleges value it instead of taking, e.g., AP Biology? Once I heard a counselor said that most of the kids participate in sport by, e.g., joining school basketball team. Perhaps one should consider being a referee.</p>
