Hi all, can you guys tell me if this is a good amount of APs to take by the end of...

Applying to College
1

<p>senior year</p>

<p>Ok in sophomore year, I took 1 AP, and 2 honors
Junior Year (this year): I have taken 3 APs
Senior Year: I will have 2 APs and 1 honors</p>

<p>Ok so, our school did not have a lot of available APs...but they added like a humongo list for next year</p>

<p>So basically, I will have taken 6 APs and 3 honors courses by the end of my high school career. For sophomore year, only 1 AP was available. This year (junior), 5 were available but I took 3 out of 5. Next year, they have added like 9 more, so by next year, there will be a total of 15 APs available to my school.</p>

<p>I will have taken 6 out of 15...which frankly, isn't fair considering they didn't add these my junior year (now)..and I don't want to overload myself with college aps and tons of APs..so what should I do? Is that amount of APs good enough?</p>

<p>There is no threshold of what is enough. However, many of those accepted to top schools have more APs than that. With that said, many have fewer.</p>

<p>oh man…ok so what should I do? add more APs?</p>

<p>my schedule is pretty full…and econ and gov are like 1 year each so i couldn’t fit econ into my sched argh</p>

<p>Have your counselor write a not explaining they added a lot of APs, because the 4/6 is a lot stronger than 6/15.</p>

<p>That’s pretty good IMO. I only took 4 (out of like 10) and I got accepted to a lot of great places</p>

<p>Yeah, the ratio of how many you take compared to how many are offered is more important. My school offers a ridiculous amount of AP’s (almost all of them) so even an average student in my school will graduate with 2-4 AP’s.</p>
