<p>I am in 9th grade and currently taking</p>

<p>Biology and Alg2/Trig (A's in both)</p>

<p>What math and sciences should i take/will look the best for IVYs?
I am looking to major in computer science, finance, econ (something related, possible double major) </p>

<p>10th grade I a planning to take AP Stat, and then not sure what science, Do i even need to take chemistry, I could just not do it and do AP Bio
Should I take precalc instead? My teachers said to get Stats out of the way, but a lot of people say to do precalc sophomore year</p>

<p>11th - Honors Precalc (possibly AP Calc), AP Physics (Don't know B or C) ad not sure</p>

<p>12th - AP Calc BC, AP Environmental</p>

<p>I want to take AP Computer Science sometime, when should I?</p>

<p>This is just so far, I want to know if I should make any changes, add, drop anything.</p>

<p>My school offers</p>

<p>Honors Precalc<br>
AP Statistics<br>
AP Calc AB<br>
AP Calc BC
College Math</p>

<p>AP Biology
AP Chemistry
AP Physics C
AP Environmental Sci.
AP Computer Scienc</p>

<p>I'm going to take my ACT and SAT 2 in Bio M this year (ACT/SAT only goes up to Alg 2, why not)</p>

<p>I would not take Bio M this year if I were you. Take it after you take AP Bio. Anyway, for HYPSM, you should take the three main science APs (Bio, Chem, and Physics C) and finish AP Calculus BC.</p>

<p>Someone I know who got into Harvard took AP Bio his junior year, PreCal summer before senior year, and is taking AP Cal and Anatomy his senior year.
I agree with taking Bio, Chem, and Physics.</p>
