<p>Hi everyone. I recently sat down and tried to plan out my math and science path. I'm thinking...</p>
<p>9th grade: physical science (required) and algebra 2/trig</p>
<p>10th grade: ap statistics and honors chemistry </p>
<p>11th grade: honors precalc and ap biology</p>
<p>12th grade: ap calc, ap chemistry, and ap physics. </p>
<p>I honestly have no idea what I'm doing so any advice or suggestions would help a lot! Thanks.</p>
<p>Science looks good but I would change math.
9: algebra 2/trig
10: pre calc honors
11: ap calc
12: ap stats</p>
<p>The first three go in the sequence in which would be most helpful, while AP Stats is a completely different math. Also, it’s usually easier for people, so it would be a bit of a break for you senior year when you have a lot of other harder APs.</p>
<p>That makes more sense. Thanks for replying!</p>
<p>AP Stats is no break lol. Pointless busywork to the end of time.</p>
<p>AP Calc is a break. :P</p>
<p>Take em all.</p>
<p>Stats was easier than calc for me, for sure. Less work too. Though if you don’t take any calc senior year and start up in calc 2 in college, you might have a rough time. Perhaps calc BC senior year if your school offers it, it would keep you on the math sequence if you plan on taking more in college.</p>
<p>Does your school require you to take honors chem before AP chem but not honors bio before AP bio or honors physics before AP physics?
If it’s not a requirement I’d probably drop the honors chem and switch AP chem to soph year, AP chem and physics in the same year would be doable but rough.</p>
<p>As long as you take the most rigorous classes offered, you should be fine.</p>
<p>Agree with JoshK, move stats to 12th. Don’t break up Calc sequence.</p>
<p>You’ll want to keep your Calculus as close to Algebra II as possible. They’re the type of math that is on the SAT anyway. So I would definitely move stats to 12th grade. Also, I am with @BeccaN. Do you have to take the honors courses before AP?</p>
<p>
really? it’s the opposite at my school</p>
