<p>During my freshmen year, I had too many basic classes. No advanced. GPA was average IMO, a 3.5. Is this schedule good? I'm planning on attending UMich.</p>
<p>1st hour: Finance & Investment
2nd hour: AP US History
3rd hour: Geometry (I tried taking this during summer school for advancement so that I could take Algebra 2, but both of my parents found jobs and I had two younger siblings to take care of)
4th hour: Spanish 2
5th hour: Honors Biology
6th hour: American Literature/Writing</p>
<p>Your schedule is ok but you should try to take more APs. If you can you might want to take geometry and algebra 2 at the same time and/or replace finance and investment and american literature/writing with an AP or at least an honors class. You also might want to try and take honors chemistry as well. I don’t know much about UMich except it is a good school so I can’t really help you there. sorry and good luck with this year</p>
<p>3.5 is far from average… In my school a 3.5 would put you in the top 15%. (roughly) Your schedule looks fine. You’re only a sophomore and have plenty of time to improve. Stop comparing yourself to CCers</p>
<p>^It all depends on what school you go to, at my school (it’s very competitive) the average is probably 4.0.</p>
<p>Your schedule looks pretty good, only thing is Math is kinda behind :/</p>
<p>Actually, the math is average. Generally, anything higher than pre-algebra in middle school is advanced.</p>
<p>It looks decent. Kinda one year behind in Math and Science for CCer standards</p>
<p>If it’s all stuff you’re interested in/required to take, then sure! Since you haven’t taken any advanced classes yet, jumping to all Honors/APs probably wouldn’t be a good idea. Besides, colleges like seeing an increase in schedule difficulty.
If you find your schedule really easy this year, you can always add a couple more APs or honors next year, since junior year is kind of vital.</p>
