Schedule change effect on admissions?

Applying to College
1

<p>So originally I had signed up for 6 AP classes: Spanish, calc, lit, chem, bio, and computer science. Due to scheduling conflicts I had to drop bio in order to keep chem and computer science in order to keep Spanish so now I'm only down to 4 and I added honors physics (no AP option for physics). Will having only 5 classes my senior year hurt me during admissions? It is still definitely the hardest course load possible but I'm afraid it'll hurt me for when I apply ED to my dream school Cornell. What do you guys think? And btw, just due to the way we do things at my school despite its size of ~2200 kids and scheduling conflicts, I'll only have 6 APs when I graduate, how bad will this look? How can I offset this? Tips, suggestions, anything? Thanks ahead of time!</p>

<p>edit: I will now also have a senior early release which I did not have schedule previously because I do not want to take a regular 4.0 class. Won't this look like I'm lazy? I'm so worried...</p>

<p>Ha thanks. I guess I’m just freaking out in comparison to everyone else who may/can have more. =/</p>

<p>Do yourself a favor: don’t compare yourself to the people who take 5 million AP tests by the time they graduate. There really aren’t that many of them, it’s just that everyone who does that is on CC.</p>

<p>You worry too much :slight_smile: There are still four months before ED decisions come out. Save the worrying for later :)</p>

<p>Ha, thanks everyone! I’ll try not to stress as much but you know how it is… ;)</p>
