<p>Ok quick summary
School offers 6 AP classes- bio, english,english lit,calculus,econ/government,US History.
I took 2 Junior year (US History-3, English-3)
I signed up for 2 AP this year instead of 4 (calc and english lit)
Ap bio is a 99% fail course in school, and I thought 3 would be too much
Im still taking the AP test for econ and government though I didnt take the class
Calculus AP JUST got dropped from my school (its a block scheduling) and so now im going to be forced into statistics, which isnt AP. So now I only end up taking 1 AP class this year. </p>
<p>Questions:
Will this look bad to colleges?
Should I send a letter explaining what happened to the colleges, since im not taking AP calc anymore?
If I somehow got to dual enroll for calc or something would that look good/be ok for colleges even though im taking statistics?
Advice on what would be best?</p>
<p>Because it wasn’t your fault that the class was dropped, I highly doubt any colleges will punish you for it. You could send a letter or even a quick email letting them know what happened and ask whether it will affect you; I don’t know if it would do any good or not, but it can’t possibly hurt you. Plus, it would show that you really care about this problem.</p>
<p>I don’t know if I really have any great advice as to what to do with your schedule, but I’m sure it would be fine if you just stuck with statistics. Most colleges just recommend you take the toughest courses available at your school, and it seems as though statistics is your only choice, so, again, I don’t think they’ll punish you for it. Of course, if you really want to take calc somewhere else then I suppose that wouldn’t hurt either, as long other grades don’t suffer or something.</p>
<p>Good luck :)</p>
<p>thank you for the info hbeck5686!</p>
<p>They shouldn’t punish you. You could probably get your gc to call and explain I necessary. Self-studying is an option too.</p>
