<p>Hi! I'm a high school freshman and I need some feedback to these classes that I plan to take. Is my schedule going to be too stressful? Will I have extra time? Are the classes hard?</p>
<ol>
<li>Pre Calc Honors (In Alg 2 Honors, no problem)</li>
<li>AP Biology (I do science bowl>>biology; will take chem over summer at community college)</li>
<li>AP Spanish (Best student in Spanish 3; I have spanish tutor)</li>
<li>AP Mandarin (fluent speaker, can write & read decently)</li>
<li>AP Comp Sci (? not much background in this)</li>
<li>English 2 (REQUIRED)</li>
<li>World History (REQUIRED)</li>
</ol>
<p>I plan to do tennis in the fall and track in the spring. </p>
<p>Please give me feedback; I really want to have a productive high school experience. Thank you!!!</p>
<p>I think AP Biology and Pre-Calc will be your most challenging classes. The other ones should not be difficult at all, though I don’t know how well you are at time management. </p>
<p>Im also doing AP Comp Sci next year so Ill be with you there. However I don’t recommend taking two AP languages that’s just a time waster. Focus on taking like Honors English its probably more useful than AP mandarin</p>
<p>AP bio isn’t that difficult. I never studied and got a 3 on the test without any previous biology background besides 7th grade life science. I haven’t taken AP Computer Science, but know about the test. I think it will be difficult if you have a hard time grasping Java, so I suggest you start learning the basics over summer. The easy part should be when you are learning about things like data types, but Java can be confusing- at least it was for me. My suggestion is to avoid trying to pick up on things like C++ and python and work with C# and Java because it will help you learn the language faster. Good Luck!</p>
<p>@gtownhopeful2016 thanks for the detailed description. Got the barrons and started looking at it and dang it was confusing on the first page. But i think once my teacher explains it i will catch on. - hopefully :)</p>
