Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>Alright, so I just got my report card-for freshman year, I received the following final grades </p>

<p>Honors English 9-A
Honors Euro/World History II-B (I recieved a C+ for fourth term- does this kill me??)
Honors Accelerated Geometry with Trig-A-
Honors Biology I-A-
Honors Spanish II-A-
Concert Band-A-
Ceramic Art Forms-A
PE-A</p>

<p>So that makes my GPA 3.87 W and 3.69 UW
That was with absolutely no effort whatsoever. Next year I'm going to buckle down and actually put in effort in an attempt to get a higher GPA. </p>

<p>Next year I'm taking
Honors English 10
Honors Spanish III
Honors Accelerated Algebra II
Honors Chemistry I
Pre-AP US History (first year of the two year APUSH)
Honors Anatomy
Photography I
PE
3-D Art Forms</p>

<p>Does this sound like a good schedule for sophomore year? I would like to take some more advanced courses to be more of a challenge, but my school is very strict about what courses you can take what year. The only AP available for sophomores is APUSH. It was a struggle to get my GC to allow me to take Anatomy, which is normally for Jrs ans Srs. There is also a 10 semester art requirement, so that's why I'm taking so many electives.</p>

<p>It certainly seems reasonable, based on the relative success you had as a freshman in honors courses. The only difference will be honors anatomy, since it’s an extra class and designed for older students. If you’re ready to challenge yourself and have the academic prerequisites, so long as you focus on work, it shouldn’t be too much of a problem. Good luck!</p>

<p>I think it’s fine and whether to take APUSH without Pre-AP or not is up to you. I don’t think it’s going to make a big difference either way.</p>

<p>seems like a solid sophomore schedule, it looks very similar to mine.</p>
