<p>Which one should I take</p>
<p>I have 2 years of foreign language
I have taken chem 1, bio 1, physics 1, and am enrolled in physics ap</p>
<p>I'm doing a science related major</p>
<p>should i take Spanish AP or Chem AP?</p>
<p>Good question to ask yourself: which one do you want to take?</p>
<p>i’m currently in Spanish</p>
<p>but i noticed that the ap distribution is pretty bad for spanish at my school. Very few students get 4s/5s. In Chem all but 2 got 5s. It isn’t terrible at the moment. However, there is a research paper in spanish this year, and i saw a previous year’s sample. It belonged to someone I knew who went to Princeton. She got a C lol.</p>
<p>If you’re willing to do the work in Chemistry to get 4 or 5 then go for it. Just know that it won’t be easy.</p>
<p>Well I took AP Chem, and scored a 4, and it was MUCH more fun than the lousy Spanish 3 course I took to graduate “Distinguished”. You’re doing a science related major, take AP chem score a 4 or a 5 and accept the credit. If you’re headed into something other than chemistry or biochem then accept both sems of credit, but I would take the second semester of it in college just as a review (denying the credit).</p>
<p>If you’ve only taken two years of Spanish, I would think AP would be extremely difficult. At my son’s school you need an A in Spanish 4 to take AP.</p>
<p>Take AP Chem AND regular Spanish III. You will have a better outcome during the admission’s process if you have 3 years of foreign language under your belt.</p>
<p>my schedule is packed and I have to take one, not the other</p>
<p>Many many colleges want to see 3 years of foreign language in the high school curriculum.
Not having it could mean the difference between an acceptance and a rejection. If you feel that you could do well enough in AP Spanish and it won’t hurt your GPA, you should seriously consider taking the 3rd year of foreign language. Discuss this with your GC before making your decision.</p>
