junior yr scheduling advice - too many APs?

Pre-College Issues High School Life
1

so, i’m currently a sophomore taking:

  • PreAP English 10
  • PreAP Chemistry
  • PreAP Spanish 3
  • AP World History
  • Algebra 2
  • Health (required)
  • Info Tech (elective)

i’ve maintained a 4.0, but it hasn’t been alll that easy and i tend to have a lot of anxiety and stress related issues. my hardest classes are without a doubt AP World (examming in about a week!!) and Algebra 2

that being said, can anyone offer me advice on my potential junior year schedule? here’s what i have in mind:

–

  • AP English Lang; i’ve always been fairly strong in English, specifically in essays and papers, not as much in multiple choice
  • AP Bio; as i'm hoping for a future in healthcare, this is a must
  • PreAP Spanish 4; the required credits for a foreign language are 3, this is me trying to go above and beyond. along with the fact that i find learning the language interesting and useful
  • APUSH; i'm actually very double-minded on whether it would be the right choice to take this class or not. i understand a lot of your experience is based on your teacher, but i would still love input
  • Pre-Calc; i'm hoping to self-study and gain stronger math skills daily during the summer, does anyone have experience in attempting this?
  • AP Seminar; alright so this class i am really going into blindly, it's brand new at my school but the Capstone diploma interested me and searching up on it, i have read that it's v chill but also heavily research and speaking based. i would love to improve on speaking, but would i be playing myself if i decided to take this along with another AP English class?

- Web Technology; for my tech credit

so if anyone could offer any sort of input on my schedule, whether you think it’s crazy or doable, whether you think i’ll die (jk), and any other advice or personal experience regarding my questions, i’d appreciate it so much. thank you<3

This is what I think:

AP Lang - sounds fine, if you like writing that will work well to your advantage
AP Bio - according to my friends this is very hard, expect a lot of work
PreAP Spanish 4 - sounds fine
APUSH - notorious for being very work-heavy, if this isn’t your priority you may want to drop down
Pre-Calc - sounds fine, maybe you can try Khan Academy for math practice?
AP Seminar - I don’t know enough to say anything about it
Web Technology - sounds fine

Good luck with your AP World exam! :slight_smile:
