Note: I’m in Grade 11 right now, so I’m just being prospective for Grade 12. It could easily change. For the moment, everything in the extracurricular activities section is true minus one year, my G.P.A. is 4.52 (but steadily increasing throughout this year, so if my current grades are maintained, it’d be a 4.57 by the end of the year), and my Class Rank is 3.

It looks awesome…but can you handle all those AP classes at once? Can you do well trying to study for 6 AP tests?
What do you want to major in? Like I would not take AP Art history if you just need to take an art class…and you have no further interest in art. Same deal with AP Music theory…will you continue in music?

AP music theory assumes extensive musical knowledge. If you haven’t played and read music, listened to lots of different styles, can take dictation… Pass. If your experience in jazz band is good enough, drop art history. Take one OR the other, not both.
4-5 APs de senior year would be a lot.
(The aw of diminishing returns applies after 8 APs, total).

If you are asking if they will be impressed, then no. Is it a very good schedule? Yes. Lots of students will have a similar HS transcript at top 50 colleges.
