<p>This is my current schedule for senior year: band, AP Bio, pre-cal, AP English, contest debate, ancient history/current events and dual credit Spanish.</p>
<p>I really want to take AP psych, though. The problem is: I'll have to give up AP bio for anatomy/physiology. The teacher for bio is better than the one for anatomy. </p>
<p>What should I do?</p>
<p>I don’t understand what you need help deciding on… lol</p>
<p>Should I take anatomy, even though I don’t really want to, in order to take AP psych? I don’t really know what anatomy is like.</p>
<p>Wait, if you take AP psych, you have to give up AP bio for anatomy??</p>
<p>I would stick with AP Bio if you plan to have a science related major :)</p>
<p>Anatomy is the study of living things/the body. At my school, they dissect whole cats, which makes the entire hall smell for weeks :l</p>
<p>It’s an interesting topic, but I still think Bio would be more useful.</p>
<p>Meh, I never saw why A&P was necessary for Psych.</p>
<p>Either way, this is really something that you have to decide, not us.</p>
<p>That’s a hard one. AP Psych is ridiculously easy (at least, it was at my school), so if you want to challenge yourself, you might want to take AP Bio (which is also more applicable to different majors). However, if you want to continue in psych, it might be better to get the credits now so you don’t have to waste time and money taking it in college.</p>
<p>@Elleya: A&P is pretty relevant to psych, as I’ve taken both in college and there’s been a ton of overlap. Many fields examine the anatomy and physiology of psychological processes; plant, ecology, and cell cycle stuff (from Bio) aren’t as relevant to these fields.</p>
<p>Good luck deciding!</p>
<p>A&P shouldn’t be necessary for Psych, per se. I took both in high school and while I could see the overlap, it was more of a learning something twice than needing prerequisite knowledge. For instance, we learned how the nerve impulse worked in A&P and then again in Psych. </p>
<p>Anyways, AP Psych is considered an easy class by adcoms (many colleges I know don’t even take the credit) and if you want to impress, take Bio!</p>
<p>I’m hoping to major in International Relations in college, so I think that AP Psychology would be better. If I took it, my schedule would be: band, AP psychology, pre-cal, AP English, contest debate, anatomy, and dual credit Spanish.</p>
<p>Take ap pys. because it’s a class that you said you need for college/major. Why take ap bio when it isn’t the what you’re majoring in…</p>
<p>Smarty1201: That’s what I’ll do then! Thank you!</p>
