I am a rising senior and I am already planning to take AP Bio and AP Physics I alongside AP Computer Science A. This year, I am already taking AP Psychology and AP Macro Economics. I want to go into the Biological and Biomedical Sciences field when I go to college. Should I self study AP Environmental Science and take the exam this May? Does having it on my transcript make me seem bad in any way?
I think your time would be much better spent focusing on the classes you are taking in HS, making meaningful contributions to ECs you care about, and being with friends and family.
If environmental science is a topic you are interested in by all means study up on it and enjoy, but I don’t think self-studying for an AP, especially one of the “easy” APs, will be meaningful in terms of college admissions.
