Junior Year Schedule???

Pre-Med & Medical School High School Student Topics
1

I recently switched schools and last minute have to decide on classes for next year.
Dilemma #1: I want to major in engineering once I get to college so I definitely should take advantage of AP Physics C: Mechanics, (Pre-req. is normal Physics), which wouldn’t be a problem if I didn’t also want to take AP Chemistry. Fitting this into my schedule is tough and it would look like this:

AP English Language (notoriously easy at my school)
Pre-Calculus (no honors option)
AP Chemistry
Symphonic Band
French lll (Have to take online which will give me a free hour during the school day in case of academic emergencies)
Physics (Will have to test out of government)

I could ditch french to fit physics and a history class in my schedule but I might end up overwhelmed and I want to do very well in all of my classes. Not sure if I want to do that. Which would be more beneficial?

If I don’t take AP Chem then I will probably end up taking some form of a history class. (Options are: AP Macro, AP Micro, AP US Gov, AP World)

Or I could just ditch french anyway and substitute it with a real class. (No idea what)

What do I do?

I’m also in french three this year and I dropped french at the third level as well

Don’t take Physics C. From what I heard, AP Physics C is calculus-based, which might pose as a problem because you are still on pre-calc. My best bet is for you to take Physics C senior year and take AP Chem junior year.

Agree with the above. In our local school you can not take Physics C unless you are also signed up for AP Calc AB or higher math.
