<h2>My school doesn't offer AP Computer Science and that is something I really feel would look great if I did and because I actually like computer science and have done part of the class before on FLVS (but didn't complete it due to time issues), I was going to try to take AP Computer Science in place of AP Chemistry in the Library of my school. I'm still pending to see if they will set it up for me and allow it as this is something I really want to do.</h2>

<p>All other computer courses such as Intro to Eng. Design or Intro to Info Tech., etc are too easy and I'm probably going to do them over the summer since I am great with computers.</p>

<p>Thank you very much for those who took this as seriously as I am.</p>

<p>I’m not exactly sure about how it all would align for your future, but taking two AP sciences at once may be pretty killer. Now, I obviously have no idea what you are like, but I talked to a science teacher about doing AP Chem and AP Physics B next year and she gave me this look of horror. In regards to the AP Comp Sci deal, I would probably advise trying really hard to get the AP Comp Sci thing to work, since some of your potential majors will greatly deal with it and it would only help you in the long run to have dealt with it already. </p>

<p>hope I helped.</p>

<p>take out ap chemistry cause 2 sciences will kill you. You can take AP comp sci online ask your counselor about this.</p>
