Hello! I’m a rising Junior in high school and I’m wondering if this schedule is difficult enough. I’m reaching for competitive universities in Massachusetts (BU,BC,etc.)
Some info about my past two years in high school:
Current GPA going into the year: 3.83UW & 3.89W
I’ve only taking AP Human Geo as it was the only AP available to us as underclassmen. I got an A and 5 on the exam. Though the class is known to be an easier AP, my teacher (who also teaches Apush) made the work pretty demanding and I think it prepared us for future APs.
Junior Year Schedule I’m currently signed up for: (we take 8 classes a year)
-Ap Lang
-Apush
-Ap Euro
-Ap Chemx2(we count this as 2 classes so it technically will be 2 APs on GPA)
-Reg. Calculus
- Economics
-Gym2
**Btw there is no honors Calc. Econ&Gym are grad requirements.
***I’m thinking about dropping APush because of the reputation for stress and piles of work it come with at my school. Doing this I could spend more time on Ap Chem, and Euro( Ap Euro is known to be less difficult at my school). The downside is I would have to fill Apush’s spot with Reg. US History bc of a grad requirement.
****Some answers to questions you guys may have:
- For those who are curious I want to major in business, specifically marketing, but there aren’t many business/marketing geared courses at my school.
- Yes, I’ve taken a language. Spanish 1-4.
- I’ve taken Hon. Chem, Bio, and Earth Science.
