<p>I'm gonna be a freshman this year in high school and I am deciding whether to take algebra 2 honors or orchestra. I started playing the viola in 5th grade, but I'm not that amazing at it. If I take orchestra, I have to take fewer AP/advanced classes. If I take quit orchestra, I can take both geometry adv and algebra 2 honors. This would allow me to take more AP/advanced classes. Do colleges prefer 4 years of orchestra or more AP/advanced classes. I am torn because I want to take more math/science classes in high school but I know colleges like extra curriculars. I don't plan on playing the viola after high school and I wanna major in the business/medical field. I really want to get into a top college and I'm worried that I won't be a "well rounded" student if I don't do orchestra. But I do plan on doing other school clubs. Orchestra gets to go on a huge trip every 3 years which would be fun. I cannot decide, please help!!</p>

<p>I’m taking Algebra 2 and Geometry right now and it’s not fun. Math is a homework-heavy subject, and honors makes it even harder. Unless you know you can do all your homework on time, I wouldn’t recommend it. Also, I find that I pay attention to one math a lot more than the other, like I do my Algebra homework while the Geometry teacher is lecturing. Besides, orchestra is a great extracurricular! </p>
<p>Definitely orchestra. Prove that you’re committed to your hobbies! :)</p>
<p>Orchestra and this is coming from someone who doing engineering.</p>
