<p>After dropping AP Biology at school I wasn't able to be placed in another science class. I now have to take a science class at a local community college, and the ones available are Environmental Science and Psychology. Whichever one I choose to take, I would probably take more advanced classes in that subject over the summer. I am wondering which one would look better on a college application? Also, if I decided to declare psychology or environmental studies/science on my college app, which one would be easier to get admitted with? Thanks.</p>
<p>The most important classes for you to take are biology, chemistry and physics at whatever level you can handle. Psychology wouldn’t normally be counted as a science class, so enviro would be better.</p>
<p>Biology would actually be available, but if I take biology I am scared colleges will know that I dropped AP Bio, b/c they will wonder why I am taking the class at the community college level and not just at my high school. Is this a valid concern?
If I took ES during the school year (to ensure all A’s b/c its an easy class), and then over the summer I took Biology at a community college, would colleges know that my schedule during the school year isn’t too strong? Or would they be satisfied knowing that I took Biology and not care what time of the year I took it in?</p>
<p>Take both like I did. I thought Psychology was very easy and interesting, in contrast to Environmental Science which bored me. However, I did take AP though.</p>
