<p>Let me know how much of an impact will taking no ap classes junior year be on my decisions for college acceptances from the colleges i listed above. </p>
<p>Almost none, especially if any of the courses you’re taking this year are considered fairly challenging or are honors level. Frankly, the people on this forum are FAR from the norm when it comes to APs and over 40% of high school grads never take any APs (and the second most common number to take is 1). As long as you aren’t obviously underachieving, you’re fine. The AP tests actually matter very little to colleges (unless you get an A+ in the class and a 1 on the test). The reason taking APs is important is that they are rigorous coursework, but it’s fine if you are still challenging yourself academically without them.
Good luck with the coming school year!</p>
<p>As long as you’re taking courses that challenge you, you’ll be fine. They don’t have to be AP level, they can also be honors classes. Like ameliab12 said, if you’re taking all the easiest classes and getting straight A+s, that’s when it’d be a problem. </p>
<p>Besides, you’re taking 3 APs as a senior and that is plenty.</p>
