<p>I am already planning on taking 1 off period next year and have the option of taking an additional one if I want to. (My school is on block schedule; we have 4 classes per day so if I decide to take 2 off periods I would only have 3 classes per day.) </p>
<p>I'm afraid that 2 off periods may give colleges a bad impression of me. I am taking 2 summer college courses in economics and government so 1 of the off periods will replace that class. </p>
<p>I'm aiming to get into Berkeley, so what do you think would be the best choice? I have the median SAT score (2060) of students that are accepted there, I have a GPA of 4.436, and I'm involved in multiple extracurricular activities. If I decided not to take another off period, I'd be stuck taking an unappealing elective. </p>
<p>Any advice is appreciated. Thanks! :)</p>
