Is it possible to take 7 AP exams in one year?

<p>I 'm currently a sophomore in a private high school. I take AP Physic B this year and hopefully get 5 in exam. For my junior year, I 'll take 3 or 4 AP classes and self study 3 or 4 more. As an international student, I'm good at math and science but not good at English or history. I wonder, if it's possible to handle so many AP classes in one year (I'm aiming for the National AP scholar in junior)? will it be impressive for my college application (dream school: Stanford)?
Here's the list of all the APs I plan to take.
AP Government (a challenge one to me I think...)
AP Calculus BC (not difficult, I even can get at least 4 now)
AP Chemistry (the teacher of this class is bad...)
AP Stats (also an easy one to me)
self study:
AP Computer Science A (learned Pascal before, never learn Java)
AP Psychology (I'm told that it's a very easy AP class but I'm not that confident)
AP Physic C Mechanic (Calculus based and Physics B based)
And I will take the AP test of my native language in case one of above gets below 4. </p>

<p>AP Stats (also an easy one to me)
dont bother
AP Psychology (I’m told that it’s a very easy AP class but I’m not that confident)
dont bother</p>

<p>Colleges like Stanford are NOT impressed with students who take easy AP classes that dont interest them, in a vain attempt to “impress” . Take the most rigorous classes that you can do well in. Dont be an AP grind.
Do as many outside activities as possible . </p>

<p>Thanks for suggestion. I’ll consider more challenging classes. For outside activities, I’m accepted in several volunteering jobs in my own country’s this summer, going to be an intern in a company and will establish my own company with my friends this summer. Hope everything goes well.</p>

<p>5 challenging AP classes, especially with 2 hard Science AP’s- is MORE than enough. You will have your hands full with that class load. :)>- </p>

<p>If some of those classes interest you, then definitely take them! Like I’m self-studying AP Psychology, despite it being looked down upon, because I’m interested in how the mind works. AP Computer Science A seems really fun, and since you already know one programming language, it would be great.</p>
