Stanford

<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>I'm a rising sophomore and I've always dreamed about getting into Stanford. Today, I received my schedule and noticed that I had no honor classes whatsoever and this really concerned me. My school offers Geometry honors and Chemistry honors for sophomores but I am not taking either. I am however, taking Spanish AP. Do you guys have any tips/suggestions of things I can do to make up for this lack of honors? Should I take outside classes that have to do with Geometry and Chem? I would appreciate any help :) Thank you so much!</p>

<p>I’m just not sure why you have no honors, but an AP class. Did you not meet the requirements for honors? Did they run out of room? Please explain further. Frankly, I think you need to do something to remedy this with your school. You just look like you picked APs where you knew you could do well, and dropped way down for classes you maybe didn’t feel as good in (I know that may not be the situation, but if I just saw your transcript from an admit perspective, that’s what I’d think).</p>
