<p>i'm a junior this year, and i have a really bad counselor, she wouldn't let me take AP classes untill I'm a senior, but others are allowed to. cuz i'm a chinese immigrant, she probably thinks I wouldn't be able to handle it. but I have around 97% average for all of my classes from my sophomore year. this year my schedule looks like this:</p>
<p>elementary analysis/ calculus Honors
Chemistry
English
American History 2
Spanish 2
Strings
SAT Prep</p>
<p>and I was wondering whether I should start self-study for some AP classes, like chemistry and maybe history. but I have a question....if I self- study, then the subject won't show up on my transcript, right? so instead of self-study, should I go with AP chem in my senior year, just so that it looks better on my transcript, since that most good colleges want to see some Honors/ AP classes on the transcipt????there are only 5 AP classes offered at my school, they are: AP Chemistry, AP English, AP Calculus, AP US History, and AP European History....any advice would be greatly appreciated!</p>
