<p>I remember I planned out my senior year courses when I was a freshman too…Didn’t really stick with it, but it was for the better. My advice is to see what your interests are and decide your classes based on that, while still fulfilling whatever graduation requirements your school has. Basically, if you don’t think you’ll really enjoy the class, don’t plan on taking an AP for it.</p>

<p>You might end up despising economics. I certainly did, after thinking it’d be great fun. Whoops.</p>

<p>I say you start taking economics + finance classes your freshman year, you could either self study micro/macro, both are extremely easy, or even buy an introductory corporate finance textbook. And why don’t you want to take AP English Language & Lit?</p>
