I have to decide between online AP Psycology or a normal Honors Economics class. By Thursday.
I want to apply to a few very selective schools, and only have one AP senior year. It is supposed to be a class that isn’t too hard, but still an AP.
I would like to take economics but I’d have to take a fine arts class that I really don’t like and the teacher is tough (for fine arts, I could handle it, but wouldn’t like it).
What do you think I should do? I’m not sure what I will study in college so that shouldn’t affect anything.
Thank You.
Ok I just noticed I spelled psychology wrong my bad.
I am really confused. What does the fine arts class have to do with Econ? What is supposed to be a class that isn’t too hard? Says who, and why do they say that? Sorry, I truly have no idea what advice you are looking for. I don’t see how taking an online class affects what you take in school. And if you are applying to very selective schools, you really should try to do another AP at school. Colleges like to see grades.
Sorry. The whole problem is scheduling so I only have two options. That’s why fine arts is a problem.
Still dont get it. Fine arts is required? You want to take online AP psych because you want an AP, but don’t have room in your schedule?
Is the real issue here that you want to take Econ but must take Fine Arts?
If so, then you must take fine arts. You can take whatever you want online. Not trying to be unhelpful, but I am not understsnding the issue. Maybe @MYOS1634 can help?
What’s your current schedule?
Can you list the classes you took for each of these:
English=
Math=
Social Science/History=
Foreign Language=
Science=
Arts=
Electives=
Yeah I have required fine arts but the problem was if I take econ I have to reschedule my fine arts. That’s why online AP is ok I can do it whenever I want even at home.
English: Honors senior english
Math: BC calc, Honors Stat
History: none
Foreign language: none
Science: honors physics
Arts: digital photo and animation
Also have required honors religion
It’s too late to make major changes because a lot of classes only have one section so if it’s not during a free period I can’t take it. Econ works but I would have to change an art. Ap online is whenever I want.
Sorry to rush but I have about an hour and a half
Take AP psychology online and keep the art class you like.
If you can, replace honors stats with a social science.
You know your work habits better than I do, but I will advise you that online courses are much more time-consuming than we often think. I know there are certain classes you have to take, and I don’t doubt that you could make it work, but personally I had trouble with it.
Thank you guys for your help!
