New school in junior year!

Pre-College Issues High School Life
1

<p>I'm excited for the new environment and all, but it's going to be a ***** transferring credits.</p>

<p>Also, I found out that the new school has at least 3 mandatory courses, and on top of that I have marching band (I LOVE BAND). I was planning to take 3 to 5 AP's next year (junior year), and it seems impossible now, esp. because it's going to be a block schedule.</p>

<p>I'm planning on sitting down with my new counselor and the band director to perhaps take the mandatory courses in the summer and have a zero period, etc., esp. because if I don't take "the most challenging course," my GPA will be automatically dropped because I'm not categorized as "advanced."</p>

<p>Any advice?</p>

<p>at most schools counselors cannot really change that much, if you really want something you need to talk to the vice principal who is in charge of scheduling classes.</p>

<p>I’ll be moving in the late summer… do you think it’s still worth a shot?</p>

<p>Also, can colleges tell if you took summer classes instead of regular classes? What other options do I have besides summer classes?</p>

<p>Anyone been in a similar situation? :(</p>
