<p>I’m a junior taking 2 APs and 1 Honors right now. So next year I wanted to not slack off much.</p>

<li>AP Government/Economy -Required for me</li>
<li>AP Literature -Required</li>
<li>AP Physics</li>
<li>AP Calculus B/C -Required for me</li>
<li>Piano 2/Advance -Required for me</li>
<li>AP Statistics -Many say its the EASIEST AP class… And I had some easy AP classes.</li>
</ol>

<p>Want: Teacher’s Aid, Computer Science C++</p>

<p>But, my piano teacher offered me to be his TA, and he said he’ll pay me, plus since I’ll be in the piano room its a good chance for me to improve at piano and the free time I’ll have for AP homework.</p>

<p>Basically I can only drop AP Physics and AP Stats. But I took normal physics this year - seems kind of a waste not to get an AP science. And AP stats is the easiest AP class, which is pretty sweet and looks pretty good for another AP class.</p>

<p>What do you guys think I should do? Would taking a TA period look bad to colleges? I don’t want to get ignored by a college simply cause I took an easy class, cause my GPA is only around a 3.5 unweighted, and I want to get to UCLA. I want to take Computer Science too, but not sure if it would be worth it to drop another AP.</p>

<p>Thoughts on what I should do?</p>

<p>Hahahahahaha, you’re going to kill yourself! If you want to get into UCLA honestly, don’t bother. UC’s don’t even look at your senior year grades.</p>

<p>How is he going to kill himself? Stats and Gov are jokes. BC isn’t too much work. Physics and Lit are the only hard classes.</p>

<p>Why would you accept money from a teacher? That’s really strange. The choice is obvious… if you really want to be a TA or do C++, drop Stats.</p>

<p>Lol, dunno, he just said “You should be my TA, I give out giftcards/money every so often.” Apparently he doesn’t believe students working for him without getting paid.,.</p>

<p>Is it true that UCs dont look at senior grades? So becoming a TA wouldn’t affect me much?</p>

<p>UC’s do look at your senior class schedule. Also, if you have a quarter system at your high school (as I did this past year) you will be able to enter final grades for the first quarter, which they look at,even if it’s not in your GPA.</p>

<p>Sorry if I came off as rude in my other post. I didn’t mean to be. I suppose you can say I’m just bitter because my grades aren’t exactly up to par either. </p>

<p>The only thing is it’s very difficult to start to apply yourself once you have started to drift off.</p>

<p>Drop AP Stat since you have Calc BC already.</p>

8

<p>Drop Physics. Because it’s hard. Replace it with an easy AP, like Psychology.</p>

<p>mys schedule is same except I’m taking AP Environemental Scince and I’m not taking AP Calc is my schedule good enough for USC?</p>
