<p>I come from a very small international school (20 in my graduating class next year) that doesn't offer many AP courses. This year (junior year) I took AP Chemistry and AP Lang. Senior year I'm planning on taking AP Calculus and AP Literature. Because the schedule is very limited, I don't have much choice in classes. For one period I have a choice between AP Statistics and advanced programming. I have already taken Statistics this year (which covered about 70% of the AP material), so academically speaking it wouldn't be of much benefit. However, admissions wise as far as I know an AP class would be better.
I've also considered self-studying an AP during that period. As I'm aiming for an engineering/science/math based major, I'm looking at AP Physics (don't know which one!) and AP Computer Science. However, I'm worried about what colleges would think of this, as I won't have a grade as it is not an official class in addition to the fact that AP exams would come much later than college applications and acceptances.
Math and science wise I've only taken Pre-Calculus and normal Physics (which I presume is around honors level). Both courses haven't been really challenging for me (studying day before test, not paying much attention in class). I also got a 2220 on my SAT's (800m 740v 680w), in addition to tying for highest score on the Waterloo math competion in my grade with an AP-Calculus student. Which AP would be most suited for me?</p>
<p>All help and suggestions are greatly appreciated : )</p>
