<p>how does it look?</p>
<p>You're dumb. I wanted to say stupid, but that would probably get me a warning, so I'll just imply it. NO ONE cares about your schedule.</p>
<p>What do you want people to say? It's good yes...But what concerns me is your math. If you are in Algebra II/ Trig, how are you coping with the Calculus in AP Physics?</p>
<p>^This is my concern too.</p>
<p>Maybe it's AP Physics B?</p>
<p>Um...I agree with the above. I could understand being in Chemistry with Advanced Algebra 2, but AP Physics? I wouldn't take Physics unless I'd taken both Chemistry and Calculus prior to it.</p>
<p>EDIT: Oh yeah, forgot about B. I could understand being able to take that.</p>
<p>1/10. Not enough challenging classes. :(</p>
<p>12 omg your sched is sooooo superior 1212121212121212121212121212121212121212 lulzzzzz</p>
<p>I must say, though...</p>
<p>Russian III is badass.</p>
<p>Your schedule looks exhausting.
Remember your junior year transcripts are looked at VERY seriously for college admissions especially if you are applying early. More than standardized test scores or extra curriculars - GPA is key. Of course you should take challenging classes, but don't overdo it. Make sure that your schedule is such that you can maintain excellent grades. I can't stress this enough. The problem with junior year is that in addition to the usual stress of school there is also PSAT in the fall, SAT and ACT tests during the year, AP exams and Subject tests at the end of the year. With all these tests to prepare for, make sure you have enough time to study and do well in EACH of your classes. Colleges want to see that you can handle a tough workload without a drop in grades. Talk to your counselor about maybe dropping one of your classes and taking a study hall? If he/she advises against it and you end up keeping your schedule the way it is, perhaps you can reconsider some of your EC's that are time consuming but you don't really love. Back when my son was a junior, he had a courseload like yours (while doing an internship) and there was not a single day he went to school utterly exhausted. Take care :)</p>
<p>It doesn't look exhausting to me at all. I'm taking 4 APs this year (Calc BC, Art History, Human Geog, and Eng Lang.). Only one (Calc BC) is really difficult. Those APs aren't exceptionally difficult, and languages are always pretty easy, so I think having one hard AP (Physics) will be fine for a schedule.</p>
<p>I don't think it's exhaustive either. And taking a study skills is not a good idea.</p>
<p>Why do people keep asking us to rate their schedules? Rigor of a schedule is ALWAYS viewed in the context of an individual's particular school. We don't go to your school, so we don't know the difficulty of the classes/workload/teachers/etc.</p>
<p>It's pretty rigorous, however, how will you do well in physics? For physics you need to be in calculus.</p>
<p>Taking rigorous courses your junior year may either be a good or bad thing. As terrygreg said, keep in mind that your junior year transcript is closely scrutinized by colleges. If you feel you can handle all the rigorous courses AND get excellent grades, then go for it. However, I highly suggest that you do not sacrifice your grades for the appearance of a difficult courseload. Why not talk to your guidance counselor and see what they say?</p>
<p>I wish I knew Russian :)</p>
