<p>I go to a very competative school that sends top students to the Ivy League every year. There are 23 (I believe) AP courses available there. I'm concerned because I know that I'm planning on taking a lot of APs, but I want to perform well in all of them. opinions, advice, anything?</p>

2

<p>I like the variety. Just...erm...stay balanced. Know what your limitations are and manage your time wisely.</p>

3

<p>I agree with the last poster.</p>

<p>When are/did you take AP Music Theory?</p>

4

<p>5 AP's in a year is do-able several people have done it at my school and I will be doing it this coming year.</p>

5

<p>10th grade (this year), because I had a scheduling conflict and i couldn't take orchestra (boo hoo). i wanted to take it senior year.</p>

6

<p>Chipmoney: I've seen some people in this community who take many APs and do well. but I hear alot of horror stories as well (B's and C's across the board).</p>

7

<p>scale of 1 to 10......it's get's a 7. good luck in the upcoming school year</p>

8

<p>It looks good to me. You can do the AP's.
what do you guys think of mine?</p>

<p>Latin II Honors
PreCalc Honors
Biology AP
English II Honors
World History AP
Art History (NOT honors/ap)</p>

<p>I am goign to be a sophmore</p>

9

<p>its a pretty good schedule...you're going to be taking a few APs less than i am, but that might be b/c your school doesn't offer the same courses as my school does.</p>

10

<p>You guys are seriously sitting here debating about this? That's total craziness!</p>

<p>The schedule is fine, since I don't see where you failed any classes and had to retake them.</p>

<p>Perhaps you could add about half a dozen more APs to each year. Only then will you be worthy of life.</p>

<p>:-( </p>

<p>you'llsee...: anything i can do to change that?</p>

<p>reachyourgoals: it seems great! at my school there is only supposed to be one AP offered to sophomores.</p>

12

<p>Wow, fashion as a practical art requirement. Nice, wish my school did that.</p>

13

<p>Would it help in real life, Armando? There are still hopeless cases... :D</p>

14

<p>they had a few different classes offered under "practical art" - i chose fashion.</p>

<p>great way to meet girls (if you are a guy).</p>

15

<p>"reachyourgoals: it seems great! at my school there is only supposed to be one AP offered to sophomores."</p>

<p>Well my experience with these schedules may be a bit different in that case... my school requires 3 AP's for sophmore year so 5 isn't too big of a leap for most people.</p>

16

<p>I kind of evaluated your APs based on individual difficulty and the amount of credits each would be worth at my school (for example, APUSH I and II were one, becuase my school offers them as one; same with the Englishes) and it was a 7 overall, but consdering that a few of them are not particularly difficult, it probably should be less than that, but it's still impressive. As for your non-AP courses, many were impressive, and your schedule is difficult overall. However, your school seems to be devaluing the word "Honors" (Honors Chamber Orchestra?), so I didn't take all those honors courses into account. Overall, for CC, it'd be a 7 or 8, but for the average group, it would be a 9 or 10. Ironic how the only people who make these are people who know their schedules are difficult. I read somewhere that the average MIT student who took any AP classes during high school took 4 to 5.</p>

<p>Your schedule is possible. I would recommend joining a sport instead of gym though if you are not that good at one do X Country =). Also self-study a couple like 1 or 2? That looks good as well. Good Luck!</p>
