Hi there,
I’m currently a sophomore. Last year I took my first ap course, ap human geography. This year I’m planning to take-
Pre ap Chemistry
Pre Ap algebra 2
Pre ap Spanish 3
Pre ap English 2
Ap world history
Pre ap Art 2
Ap European history

Ap world history is a core class, but ap European history is an elective. Should I keep ap European history or change it to principles of health science, which is a necessary course to take of you want to do clinicals next year. Clinicals is basically teaching about the medical field and being trained in a hospital and various tasks, but it asks for commitment, around three years. I’m stuck between ap European history and principles of health science. Ap European history’s main advantage is that its GPA will be high 5.0 while principles of health science is only 4.0. Plus I have heard ap European history is difficult for some students but our teacher isn’t that bad. Pls advise me which one should I pick between these courses?

From where i live, High school starts in grade 10. but anyways…

I’m kind of glad seeing not everyone here is taking like 6 APs per year and self studying 8 more. I think it’s good to take APs if they interest you, but if they don’t it’s fine. I was talking to someone who is wicked smart and she said “yeah, I didn’t take that class just for the AP” so I think it’s fine to pursue other things as opposed to all AP

Sorry I’m a little late…
