<p>Assuming that you’ve taken the hardest classes that your school offers for Freshman and Sophomore year, you’re on the right track at the moment. It looks like you’ll be doing a lot in your next two years as well.</p>

<p>Between AP Stats and AP Environmental, there isn’t really a better one, I think. You should choose the one that you like better. If you like math more, do AP Stats. If you like biology more, do Environmental. Same for Psychology. Same for IB Math or AP Bio, though personally I think you should pick AP Bio for that since you already took both AP Calculus classes, making IB Math kind of pointless.</p>
