Junior year, considering switching ap classes

<p>so for my 3rd semester. Im thinking of taking out ap european history for ap biology. i want to major in a science in college. also i don't think ap euro is a useful class. is it? would it be a good idea to switch ap euro for ap bio if i'm considering a science major in college?</p>

<p>Most colleges require that you take certain history courses as part of their required undergrad curriculum. I would stick with AP Euro so you can opt-out required history courses at the university you are applying to. Check with the colleges first.</p>

<p>If you don’t like Euro because it is a lot of memorization, then you’ll loath Bio. </p>

<p>Plus, if you are just looking for college credit, and you want to major in the sciences, then AP Bio might not mean anything; colleges will generally want Biology majors to start with Bio 101.</p>

<p>Yeah, but it’s better to go into a major with a few supplemental AP classes than no corresponding classes at all.</p>

<p>Yeah, i’m looking for college credit. So that means if i’m majoring in biochemistry/biology I should just take ap euro so i can take biology courses in college?</p>

<p>NO. Switch to Bio. If you get the AP Bio credits, you don’t necessarily need to use those credits to skip intro classes.</p>

<p>I’m not sure if this is true but Bio majors can start with more advanced Bio classes if they use AP credit.</p>
