Is my Junior year Schedule considered "competitive " in any way ?

I have finalized my Junior year schedule , here is how it looks

AP U.S History
AP Lit Comp
AP Psychology
Algebra 2
Spanish 3
Chemistry

I took two APs this year (AP Eng Lang and AP World History) , and there is approximately 1000 students in my class/grade .

Does this look OK ? , Good ? , or is this downright horrid ?

I think this looks pretty good. It depends on how many APs they offer and also how many you’re eligible to take. I think it’s looking good.

The AP classes are fine.

Looks good!

If you’re aiming for ivies, it may be a little easy. Otherwise, perfect! Nice going!

@siguy27 you ALWAYS compare to what’s offered at your school, not others for schedules

Looks good. Only question is why you’re only in Spanish 2?

I’m a junior now doing:
AP Calc BC
IB SL Spanish
Band
AP Lit & Comp
AP Euro
AP Bio

@ orca24: what’s your question? And if you want advice, you need to start your own thread, as jumping into someone else’s thread is called “hijacking” and is considered very bad manners.

^Posting a schedule for means of contrasting schedules seems relevant to the discuss; your post adds nothing.

OP: I think it seems pretty good, as long as it is above average for a student at your school.

No, @MYOS1634 is 100% correct. It is not relevant, it is hijacking, and it is rude.

My schedule for junior year:
AP American studies
AP American Studies
AP Spanish
AP Biology
AP Biology
Honors Algerbra
Honor physics.

  • Im amming for UT austin and berkley though. If i were you, to make up for Spanish, i would go into honors chem and physics. Maybe even honors spanish. why not

At my school, you would be in the “Most Demanding” schedule category :slight_smile: At least at my school, the top 10-20% usually take 3 aps as a junior. The only thing would be to see if you can try and be in an Honors Algebra 2 class and Honors Chemistry. If they don’t have it at your school, that fine, because colleges will account for that. But if possible, you should try to take it :).
It may not be the a great schedule to “Ivy” standards (what most of CC will talk about). BUT it is a GREAT schedule by NORMAL PEOPLE standards! :slight_smile:

My school district only offers foreign languages at the High school level , so every freshmen had to start at Spanish 1 / French 1 this past freshman year .

My HS does not offer honors courses either . You jump straight into the AP/IB stuff as early as 9th

Schedules are so relative and unique that you’ll be fine as long as your schedule fits you.

My junior year schedule:

AP U.S History
AP Spanish
AP Language
Varsity Baseball

Linear algebra and differential equations II
Real Analysis
Distribution Theory

Or equally odd is my senior year:

AP Bio
AP Gov & Macroeconomics
AP Lit
AP Comp Sci

Graduate Analysis I
Topology I
Abstract Algebra
Measure Theory

(For reference, my freshman schedule included AP Calc BC, AP Chem, and AP Physics B)

The Original Poster is asking for advice on his schedule. He is not asking respondents to humblebrag by posting their own steroid-induced schedule.

@skieurope my intent was to suggest to the OP that schedules are highly unique, and thus only he/she can judge whether such s schedule is “good”

@PurePhysics Well, since the OP will be judged in the context of what is available at his school, and since the GC has to fill out the Secondary School Report, it would be more appropriate to find out from a GC how the schedule stacks up against his peers.
