Should I take AP Physics or AP Bio?

Pre-College Issues High School Life

I’ll be a senior next year, and I took AP Chemistry this year.
My course load is:
Yearbook (Editor)
AP Literature
AP Studio Art 2-D (Photography)
AP Calculus AB
AP Biology OR AP Physics
Human Anatomy & Physiology (both semesters)
Honors French 4 (I can get college credit for this class)
AP Microeconomics & Biotechnology

I’m going to take economics over the summer and drop biotech so I can have one off hour.

My dilemma is whether to take AP Bio or AP Physics?
I want to go pre-med in college, so taking either one would be good. Do colleges favor any specific class? I know the workload for AP Bio is heavier (and with AP Art that would be a super heavy load), but…would either class lose or give favor with colleges? Excluding engineering school since I don’t wanna go to any engineering school.

If you’re gonna do premed you’re more likely to be taking biology than physics in college, so I would say biology.

I would think given your interests, AP Bio is better for you than AP Physics 1 (I don’t think AP Physics C would be prudent with no prior course or prep). Did you take the SAT Subject test in biology or math - that might be helpful to do as well when you are ready.

Biology

Yes, definitely AP Biology. AP Bio will be similar to topics you’ll learn/talk about in premed, so it’ll be helpful already knowing some of what you’ll learn in college.
