<p>Hi, I'm a sophomore in high school and this is my schedule:
PreAP Art 2
PreAP French 2
PreAP English 2
AP World History
PreAP Chemistry
PreAP Algebra 2
Athletics</p>
<p>I make pretty good grades in all my classes but next year I want to step it up because I'm serious about college. This is what I was thinking:
Precalculus
AP Studio Art: Drawing
AP US History
French 3
AP English Lang
AP Biology</p>
<p>Based on the rigor of my classes now, next year seems pretty hard, but I want other opinions. Do you think this a good choice? Or will it be too difficult?</p>
<p>Algebra II to precal… If you thought algebra II was a breeze precal will either be just as easy or pretty close.</p>
<p>French II to French III class wise… Same amount of work and hw presumably but the Vocab is a lot different and really new (alot to take in) so I would say medium in comparison</p>
<p>Ap world to APUSH … Ap world at my school isn’t too hard but APUSH is supposed to be really challenging … A lot of material to get through so there’s a lot of hw every night. Medium/hard in comparison…</p>
<p>Honestly if you thinks its too hard don’t take that many, or you could always prep over the summer for your APs… </p>
<p>Also don’t say ‘I want to take alot of APs so Because I’m serious about college’. Everyone on here is serious about college, not every bodies cut out for a ton of APs/challenging courses: they may still make it to Harvard or a serious college depending on what else they bring to the table :</p>
<p>I thought Algebra 2 was a breeze, but precalculus in my school was way harder…</p>
<p>I think your schedule is rigorous and fine.</p>
<p>You’re lucky that your school let’s you take Ap’s sophomore year. In mine we can only start during junior. But yeah your classes seem pretty hard and precalc is wayy better than trig in my opinion. I’m taking APBIO which is more boring than hard and APUSH which is just a lot of reading but is really easy. So if you prioritize right next year shouldn’t be too hard.</p>
<p>To anyone that has that problem a talk with the principal and teacher and councilor should fix it. Generally your not to skip chem and go to AP chem, or skip physics and go straight to AP. you have to normally take English I to graduate and you must take art 1 2 and 3 before you take 4 or 5. </p>
<p>But you wouldn’t believe what a parent and a little talk with the school can do. All these things have happened at my own school (even though they aren’t allowed). When a student shows competency (straight A’s in harder classes perhaps) how can they deny you when kids who are ‘eligible’ have worse grades then you and easier classes?</p>
