<p>I am trying to decide if my senior course load is rigorous enough:</p>
<ul>
<li>AP Euro History</li>
<li>AP English Lit</li>
<li>AP Chem</li>
<li>AP Env Sci</li>
<li>AP Psychology</li>
<li>Linear Algebra (through EPGY)</li>
</ul>
<p>I also have a few options:</p>
<ul>
<li>Taking AP Biology if I take Biology 11 Advanced as well (and if I do this I could drop AP Env Sci)</li>
<li>Taking some computer science course / university level physics course (again through EPGY)</li>
<li>Continuing my French (but then I'll probably have to take French 12 instead of AP)</li>
</ul>
<p>Thoughts?</p>
<p>(Oh and I'm aiming for Ivy League level)</p>
<p>Every school is different…
but in my kid’s school, AP Euro and Eng Lit = Lots Of Late Nite Reading. I guess it depends a lot on your speed reading comprehension skills and what you think you might be majoring in.
Granted you want Ivy, but if it’s a STEM area - drop the Eng Lit. If it’s not a STEM area for you, get a Starbucks gift card. Or 2 or 3. Good Luck!</p>
<p>Haha, thanks… Yea, I forgot to mention that I’m aiming for an engineering major. Still, I’m hesitant to drop Eng Lit because Env Sci is a course that’s outside the timetable, so half my timetable blocks are spares :/</p>
<p>That’s also the main reason I’m thinking of switching out to Bio because Env Sci doesn’t seem like a great alternative to Bio for engineering.</p>
<p>(bump) I could also take Band or Digital Art as a Fine Art course?</p>
