Senior year courseload: Too easy?

<p>Next year my schedule is:</p>

<p>Dual Credit Gov/Econ
AP English
AP Calculus
Newspaper
Independent Student Mentorship for Business & Journalism (advance measure class)
off period</p>

<p>Does this look really bad haha when colleges look at it? Should I drop the off period for AP art history instead?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>Depends what your school offers. I only have 5 "real" classes this year.</p>

<p>My school actually offers alot of AP courses haha. I'm just an extremely english & math oriented person and the extra non-core AP courses always just cover history and science.</p>

<p>What about AP Stats?</p>

<p>It also depends on the colleges you're applying to...</p>

<p>At a state school: good
At a top university: averagish</p>

<p>sous_lepontmirabeau- Taking AP stats right now. Really enjoying it too.</p>

<p>Hmmm. I dunno, then. It does seem a little too easy to me. Add AP Art History!</p>

<p>Hmm but if I do have that off period, I'll have 3 periods off at the end of the day (lunch, ISM, off period) and thus would be able to do co-op with Nasa or Boeing. </p>

<p>haha man I'm extremely indecisive...</p>

<p>At a top university: average to below average</p>

<p>You should definitely take something in your off period. Do you have a real interest in art? If you don't, I would suggest taking something more academic. I would suggest one of the AP sciences.</p>

<p>But then again, it really depends on where you want to go to college. Furthermore, it depends on what your academic interests are as well.</p>

<p>like everybody has been saying, depends on where you are going..... you probably should not have an off period</p>

<p>errr my senior year i took 4 classes and none of my acceptances got rescieded - evne got an early admit at williams :D just gotta play ur cards right</p>

<p>Hm, your schedule makes mine look like a joke...and I've already gotten into some good schools. No Harvards or anything, but good schools nonetheless. ;) I wouldn't worry about it. I really only have 4 'real' classes this year and an art class, senior home ec, etc. :D</p>

<p>I have 2 academic courses this semester</p>

<p>take an online AP course...maybe physics or something. <a href="http://www.govhs.org%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.govhs.org&lt;/a> has some excellent courses.</p>

<p>your schedule seems fine to me, but it depends what kind of school you go to. I know a few girls from my school who got into schools such as Yale with only 1 or 2 APs senior year (they arent URMs or athletes or anything), but APs at my school are reeallly demanding.</p>

<p>not too easy at all</p>
