Missed opportunity to double up on science?

[skieurope]

Honestly, 2 AP sciences senior year is not going to be what gets him into any college. fwiw (and I know that it is anecdotal) none of the HYPS students that I know took 2 AP sciences in a single year (in many schools it’s not even allowed), and only some had 2 AP sciences in total.

FWIW, you can actually include me in that group, nor did I ever double up on any science, let alone 2 AP’s

He’ll keep taking Italian senior year, just probably not at an AP level.

The 4th year does not have to be AP as long as the total course load is rigorous enough. Just because a school offers a bunch of AP’s does not mean a kid should feel obligate to take them all.
