Help with scheduling conflict AP Bio

Applying to College
1

<p>Hey everyone :)</p>

<p>I'm a junior and senior schedules are currently being finalized. I'm interested in business and was planning on taking AP Environmental as my science credit next year because I took AP Physics B this year and did well and because I'm not going into science, I didn't think I needed another uber challenging AP science and would enjoy the flexibility and fun topics of environmental. However, if I want to continue taking Italian, I cannot fit environmental into my schedule. So now my decision is:</p>

<p>Take Environmental and another elective (probably college marketing)</p>

<p>Take AP Comp sci and Italian</p>

<p>Take AP Bio and Italian</p>

<p>I'm scared to take Bio because I'm afraid I won't do well the first semester and that would hurt my mid-year grades when applying to college and I didn't think it had anything to do with business but then my guidance counselor played the healthcare industry and pharmaceutical sales card to try to convince me to take it. My question is:</p>

<p>How important is it to have a science senior year if I'm not necessarily interested in it? (I've also been in science research all 4 years so that's already a science credit btw)</p>

<p>Which combination is the most useful?</p>

<p>Which combination looks the best?</p>

<p>Thanks xo</p>

<p>Your HS counselor should tell you a science is important-but so is continuing a language.</p>

<p>If you really don’t want to do Bio are there any other AP courses at that time? Like physics C if physics B was easy for you? Also, if you don’t really need an AP science (I don’t know what type of school you want to go to) you could take a regular science</p>

<p>I took AP comp sci… and it is a very CHALLENGING course!
If you think you can do it, then you should go for it. People say that AP Bio
is not that bad, and is just a bunch of memorizing and reading…but AP comp sci
is just confusing if you dont get how to write code
