<p>Just wondering, has anyone had an insane number of AP's AND done well grade/test wise?</p>
<p>I really want to take 4 AP's next year, including USH and Biology, but my counselor is very disapproving even though my grades this year are good</p>
<p>agreed. it depends on the person. there's this person at my school that is taking 7 ap's this year. but he isn't really adamant about getting 5's on all of them.</p>

Oddly enough, your schedule is identical to the one I had, except I had Physics C instead of Physics HL and Calculus BC instead of Math HL. I also had TOK (ew).</p>
<p>I took four jr. year: Calc BC, Physics C Mech, Chem, and US. I slaved away for my grades, especially 2nd semester. It was hard b/c I am definitely not a math and science person and these are generally pretty hard APs. And so I got my only B (so far) last year in first semester Calc.</p>
<p>Definitely no where near the IB people tho. That's crazily amazing. So apparently, like 8 can be done. It depends on what you can do - maybe try it out and if it's too much drop ASAP. Like first two weeks.</p>
<p>I'm taking 6 IBs (full diploma) right now + TOK. Thankfully, they're all going very well. </p>
<p>However, I do have a friend that I think takes the prize for his junior year courseload:
In school: 7 IBs (full diploma + extra higher level)
Online: AP Calc BC, AP English Language
Through the Mail: Open University Course in Philosophy, Business </p>
<p>He's getting 6s/7s in all his IBs, predicted at 4/5 respectively for his APs, and getting As on his mail courses. Insane.</p>
