Hello! I’m still relatively new to CC, so apologies if I posted in the wrong forum section.
So I heard here and there that colleges take into account your senior year courseload? for example, how hard the classes you’re taking are, how many classes you’re taking, things like that, just to make sure that you’re not slacking off or anything.
i wanted to know like how much does this matter to admissions exactly.
and also, i wanted to share my own personal senior year courseload and ask for your input.
So in JR year, i took 5 AP’s & 1 elective, got four 5’s and one 4 on the exam.
Then in SR year 1st semester, i took 4 AP’s & 1 elective & 1 community college course.
and now in 2nd semester, i’m taking 3 AP’s (AP Econ at our school is only one semester) & 1 elective & 1 community college.
I also took like idk … 5 or so college courses over the course of JR year summer? which all together come to be like 2 years + 1 semesters worth of AP courses.
is this okay, though?
(and idk if y’all need this but this is the courses i took)
