Senior Schedule and SAT Subject Tests

Pre-College Issues High School Life
1

Hello! I was wondering if this is an okay senior year workload for a T50 college. I really wanted to try some of the more fun and hands on science classes before I left high school. Also, I would love any input on the difficulty of managing this schedule!

AP Env Sci
AP Physics 2
Zoology (1 semester)/Field Biology (1 semester)
AP Calc BC
AP Lit
AP Spanish Lang
Hnrs Adv Debate (1 semester)/AP Gov (1 semester)

My second set of questions pertain to which SAT Subject Tests I should take. For reference, I already took Math 2 and US History, and the Chemistry subject test is out of the question for me. Would having taken only Hnrs Spanish 4 provide enough of a base for me to take the Spanish subject test? Is Literature a difficult exam if I haven’t taken AP Lit yet? Or should I go for the Physics subject test and self study some AP Physics 2?

Great schedule, checks pretty much all the necessary boxes. Spanish and Lit should be okay for you to take, but at this point (having already taken a math test and a humanities-related test) a science, ie Physics, would be a much more helpful test especially if you intend on majoring in STEM. If not, try and take practice tests for Lit and Spanish and see which one you like/would do better on and take that.

Do any of the colleges you are interested in require more than two subject tests, or want specific ones that math level 2 and US history do not fulfill?

The Spanish subject test and English subject tests should be easy since they’re easier than AP.
Subject test/Physics is hard, so you’d need to see whether you know the material.
