<p>I'm a high school freshman whose dream is to attend Duke.
I'm a very good student with a >4.0 GPA and high PSAT scores (in the 70's) and I'm very passionate about volunteer work.
The thing is that I currently attending a pretty prestigious (but very small) performing and visual arts high school where I am studying art.<br>
I'm slightly worried that my high school does not offer all the classes necessary for me to get into Duke. I've talked to my guidance counselor and made a plan for my future classes. Currently i'm taking all honors classes and I plan on completing 2 AP english classes, AP Stats, AP World History, AP US History, AP Psychology and AP Drawing. These are all the AP classes that my school offers. I will also only be able to take two years of Spanish (three if i'm lucky.) This is all the foreign language i'll be able to take. I've considered taking an extra class at a community college but due to my county's rules It wouldn't count for credit (it's confusing.)
I understand that there are many other factors to consider when applying but I would hate it if my schedule crippled my changes...what do you think?</p>
<p>If you make the most of what you have, you'll be fine. Don't worry about taking extra classes to fulfill an AP resume. Your academic strength is strongly supported by your SAT and ACT scores. I'd focus more on those than taking extra classes. Best of luck.</p>
