Question About Classes - Will It Effect Admissions?

Applying to College
1

<p>My schedule is comprised of the following:
AP Euro
Honors Alg II
Honor Lit
Honors Chem
Spanish 2</p>

<p>Will it really make a difference on my transcript for college if it's not Honors Chem, but rather just Chem?
My chem class is a 0 period..and I really hate it. I don't know why. It's not a really hard class, I'm just not motivated to do squat for a class that I can't stand. Maybe it has something to do with it being so early in the morning, but I really want to go to regular chem. The teacher..bleh. Just not my cup of tea.
Of course I'll push myself to stay in and get the A if it will honestly make that much of a difference for admissions, but I want to know the truth. I'm not a science guy. Never have, never will.
I was going to change this class tomorrow, but I'd like to hear your opinions first. Thanks.</p>

<p>Honors chem does look better to adcoms than regular chem.</p>

<p>I mean..I’ll never apply to a college of Sciences. I know I’ll be doing business, so won’t it not matter since I’ll be applying to a Business school of some sort? They will see that my resume has nothing to do with science and I’m not a science guy..so now where do I stand referring to my previous question?</p>

<p>You’re right, it does matter less if you’re not going into a science field. </p>

<p>If you hate it that much, switch to regular chem. I don’t think a year of misery is worth looking only slightly better to adcoms.</p>

<p>Alright, just wanted to make sure. The atmosphere feels so morbid and I can’t motivate myself to do anything in that class.
I guess it’s for the best.</p>

<p>A bad grade would not help, so if there would be a significant difference switch. But as others point out, the honors course would be better.</p>

<p>I don’t think I would get an A in this honors course, mainly due to the motivation I need to do this course. I can’t explain it, I just feel uncomfortable.
Looks like I’ll be switching out I guess. Better to get an A in regular than a B or lower in Honors.</p>
