Should I take APUSH, AP Chem, and AP Physics?

Pre-College Issues High School Life

Hi everyone,

There was an issue with my schedule this year in which I couldn’t fit my math class in, so the best option is to drop Concert Band, a class I don’t really care for. That will leave me with a few options:

  1. Take
    AP Physics, AP Calc, AP Chem, APUSH, AP Literature, H Spanish IV, and Religion (I can’t drop religion)
  2. Take A (middle level) Spanish IV, so
    AP Music Theory, AP Calc, AP Chem, APUSH, AP Literature, A Spanish IV, and Religion
  3. Take H Latin I, so
    H Latin I, AP Calc, AP Chem, APUSH, AP Literature, H Spanish IV, and Religion

OR I can continue taking Conert Band and switch to AP Statistics, or prolong APUSH until next year and take AP Physics instead.

I would like to take the 5 APs (option 1), but I’m not sure the course load and stress factor I would have to deal with. Any ideas?

Information:
I’m in the top 5 of my class, APs are weighted a lot, so my rank is important. I’m used to at least 5 A+ a quarter.

I’ve taken H Physics, H Chemistry, and AP World. I am aware of the work required by an AP History class.

Math comes very easily to me, and other similar disciplines (grammar, Spanish, science). Things like that make sense.

I’m unsure of this option, but it may be possiblen that most of these options work if I take Honors instead of AP Literature.

Thanks

I think option #1 is the most rigorous, and if possible you should go with that.

I would not take two AP Sciences at the same time and I would take the 4th year of Spanish (as some colleges require that). So I would say 2.
