Schedule Issue

<p>I'm having a hard time deciding between AP physics B and AP Chem. I really want to take both (I really like science, particularly chem and physics) but I'm worried I might not be able to handle them because I will also be taking Calc BC. Many say all three of these APs are pretty difficult. My tentative schedule consists of:</p>

<p>Calc BC
AP Chem
AP Physics B (or AP Human geo/Psych)
Spanish III Pre AP
Orchestra
English IV AP
AP Gov/Eco
Webmastering</p>

<p>I want to go into engineering, which would make chem the obvious choice (Physics B won't count for credit), but would it be hard to take chem and physics? Thanks in advance. </p>

<p>My school does not offer AP Physics C, just so you know.</p>

<p>It depends on you as a person - I personally wouldn’t be able to handle either, but I’m not a science person. You could very well handle both and excel in each. Just keep in mind that Chem and Physics are two of the hardest AP’s available (though I believe a lot of people succeed a lot easier in Chem than in Physics) but nonetheless, if you are determined and put in the time and effort, you’ll get equal results.</p>
