I feel that my 1st semester is too weak, is that not going to be super appealing to colleges even though my second semester schedule is a little more intense.
What are your current stats including test scores? Where are you planning on applying?
Unweighted: 3.8
Weighted:4.3
SAT: 1270, plan to retake and I plan to apply to USF, FSU, UF, UCF, and other Florida Schools
My son was accepted to both UCF and USF with a lower weighted GPA (4.1) but higher unweighted (3.9) and test score (1460). He got nice merit from both as well. His senior schedule was as follows:
Semester 1: AP Calc BC, English 12, Creative Writing, Acting Techniques, Honors German 1.
Semester 2 AP Calc BC, AP Macro Economics, Honors German 1, and Teacher Aide (x2)
So based solely on that, I would not worry too much about your Senior schedule. Get the test score up to guarantee your acceptance.

you’re taking art history right now? lucky I wish my school offered it
S1 = you need 5 academic classes and “the college experience” may be weighted as an AP, it won’t carry the same weight in terms of academic rigor.
