<p>So I really need help with a tricky decision because I'm entering my Junior year this fall and my I decided to transfer out AP US History since I'm not really the best History student (I got a B- for my Pre AP US History class last year) and I'm not really interested in majoring in History for college anyway and I'm leaning towards Sports Medicine, Kinesiology, or Physiology and somewhere along those lines since I want to become a Physical Therapist. So this leaves me with only 1 AP which is AP English 11. Along with that all my other academic classes besides History: Chemistry and Algebra 2 will be Honors classes. </p>
<p>Next year for my Senior year, I'm also planning on taking AP Biology, Chemistry & English. I just really want to know if I made the right choice or not and what colleges might think if they see my transcript. I'm not aiming super duper high or anything nowhere near Ivy's but I would like to get into a good reputable school. </p>
<p>How many APs are offered at your school? Mine offers like…5. But you can only start taking one in Junior year and realistically a maximum of 3 in Senior year.</p>
<p>I took 3 (1 & 2) and got into an Ivy and other reputable schools.</p>
<p>There’s about 14 AP classes offered at my school. But some of those are only offered to Seniors or the students who take the language and got the prerequisites (AP Spanish, Mandarin, etc…)</p>
<p>You should take the most challenging classes at which you will be successful. There is an on-going debate about whether it is better to get an A in an honors class or a B+ in an AP class. If possible, take the AP and earn an A for maximum benefit. However, it is clearly better to get the A in honors than a C in the AP.</p>
<p>I would say that based on the information that you have provided here, you made a wise decision in your course selection. Make decisions based on the facts that you have now, not based on what might or might not be important to an adcom two years from now.</p>
