More AP Classes Senior Year or Junior Year?

<p>When it comes to physics, there are some issues as i pointed out. My school does not offer AP physics of any sort, they are PLANNING to bring it to our school by 2015/16 year. However, as of right now, the only plans are to bring AP PHYSICS ONE., not TWO or C :/</p>

<p>I think community college class for Spanish is a very bad idea for you. That grade will go on your college record, it will be seen by the med schools you apply to. Why would you elect to put a subject you hate and don’t do well in into that record? My rework of your schedule, drop the AP Psych (unless you are planning to go into psychiatry), move AP stats to senior year, and take Spanish 3.</p>

<p>AP Physics 1 should not be very difficult for you. The College Board’s intention is to make it replace “Honors Physics” in HS scheduling. It’s half of the current Physics B, perhaps more in depth, but still… It’ll be the same basics as Physics B in twice the time, or half of what AP Physics B covered, over one full year (it’s called 1 because the high school is supposed to offer Physics 2, too – Physics B spread out over 2 years : Physics 1= half of physics B, Physics 2= the other half). If your HS does not offer any physics, you will not be penalized for not taking it, although taking the intro to physics for non majors at a community college, as an introduction, would probably show your motivation, and prepare you for intro to physics for STEM majors. Before you do that be reasonably sure you can handle it, or see if you can take the class Pass/Fail.
Taking Spanish online may be a solution if your HS accepts it? Talk with your guidance counselor.</p>

<p>Thank you for ALL your guys’s help, I can’t thank you all enough. You guys all really helped mold my new plan. As for community college classes, I’ll try my best to select reasonable classes. I’m deffinetley goint to try to do Physics C… However, I am also considering Khan Academy + CK 12 + Self Study + Princeton Review —> SAT SUBJECT TEST for SOME of my other desired classes, like Spanish and Physiology… I strongly reccomend CK 12. Not many people know about it, and people often confuse it with K-12, but its different. It is a non profit resource that has free text books from intrroductory to post AP level. check it out. You all no about khan academy, so yeah.</p>

<p>Physics C requires you to have Calculus (or taking calculus concurrently) and you MUST have taken at least one HS year of physics (=1 semester college) prior to taking it. Since Physics is a lab science, you may learn through CK12/Khan Academy, but you’ll still need to take intro to physics in a classroom before you take Physics C- take the easiest Physics class the community college offers, take it P/F, it doesn’t matter, your goal is to familiarize yourself with the field and to be ready to take the “physics for stem majors” class at college OR Physics C somewhere. </p>

<p>Ohh, ok. Thanks. Yeah ill try to do that. btw, if i do end up taking calculus based physics (physics c) at a community college, will i still need to take the AP exam to demonstrate my knowledge?</p>

<p>Probably</p>

<p>AP Bio and AP Chem in one year?!?!?! Those two classes cover so much content, trust me I took AP bio and I’m taking chem right now. I think you should switch Psychology with Biology and so you can have at least one easy AP in 11th grade. AP physics shouldn’t be too hard since they split the content in half. But besides that I think you should take the challenge, you seem dedicated. My Junior year next year I’ll be taking 5 AP classes myself, including:
AP Lang
AP Physics 1
AP Cal BC
AP US History
AP Environmental Science (I heard it was fun at my school)</p>

<p>Next year I’m taking
AP Spanish
AP Lit
AP Physics 2 or C (depends on how I like calculus)
AP Stat
AP Macro and Gov (each one semester at my school and is a very important class that can be applied post college)</p>
