<p>My dilemma: taking art over the summer or taking art senior year... What should I do?</p>
<p>1 year of Visual and Performing Arts is required to graduate from my high school, and is also required in order to apply to a University of California. Which is why I'm taking it.</p>
<p>I was worried that college adcoms would look at my application and say "Oh, look this kid took a really easy course over his sophomore summer!" or "He's just trying to get a higher GPA senior year!" I don't know how bad, or good, it would look on my transcript to have something like "Art" as my summer school course.</p>
<p>Consider that if I don't take art over this summer, then I won't go to summer school at all, but at the same time I'll also have a stronger senior courseload.</p>
