<p>AP Stat is not too difficult; maybe add that in there?</p>

<p>Otherwise it looks as if it’s about as rigorous as your school allows, if you only have three available APs. I would also look into taking a course from your local community college if possible/desired. Good luck!</p>

<p>I want to self-study AP European History, World History, and possibly Environmental Science. I don’t care for math. Would it look bad to take only one AP math class (either Stat or Calc)? I’m planning on majoring in Linguistics.</p>

<p>It’s a fine schedule. Get excellent grades and test scores, write a good essay and you should be in.</p>

<p>Thanks. I’m also interested in the University of Chicago. Would I have a chance at getting accepted? If not, what can I do to improve my chances?</p>
