<p>So next year (senior year) i might want to take some classes at a local college. (Im a junior this year)</p>
<p>If i want to major in chem/pre-med then what would be a good class to take?</p>
<p>I will have completed AP Chem, AP Calc AB/BC, AP Physics and AP Economics at the end of my junior year. </p>
<p>Sorry if this is in the wrong section, wasnt really sure where to put it</p>
<p>Did you take AP Physics B or C?</p>
<p>1 year of Organic Chem, 1 year of Calculus-based Physics, Calculus III, Differential Equations, Linear Algebra, 1 year of General Biology (Highest Intro level) and/or Anatomy and Physiology, 1 year of highest-level Freshman English</p>
<p>Those courses would probably do you the most good</p>
<p>^^^^^Try to get into AS MANY as possible…(Stay balanced of course 
)</p>
<p>I too Ap Physics B</p>
<p>Also say if i took Organic Chem and got a C or D. Would i still have to send that score to college, and would it effect my High school GPA. Obviously i would retake it in college. Im just wondering because it seem like thats a hard class even for college students, and im in high school. I did well in AP Chem but i dont know if the two are very closely related</p>
<p>Your college transcripts will follow you around for the rest of your life, and you will have to submit them to every college (including grad school) you apply for. Be VERY aware of this. As for your high school GPA, you’ll have to ask your counselor.</p>
<p>AP Chemistry is typically a two-semester course equivalent to “General Chemistry.” Assuming you made a 4 or 5 (and your local college grants such credit) you should be prepared for Organic. </p>
<p>Look, you said you wanted to do Chem/Pre-med. You’re playing with the big boys now; these are hard classes, even for college students. Calculus II (Calc BC) is one of the most failed classes in colleges. </p>
<p>From your posts, I would suggest that you take 1 math/science course a semester at your local college, and just get humanities requirements out of the way–assuming you aren’t looking at a Top 30 school. You just don’t sound prepared.</p>
<p>Have you posted this on the Pre-Med topics subforum? I’d advise doing that as there are current Med school students who could help suggest what would be best for someone planning on taking premed coursework.</p>
<p>aigiqinf, I did get a 5 on the AP chem test and a 800 on the SAT II in Chem so i guess im prepared. </p>
<p>Also, if i were to get a bad grade, couldnt i just take the calss normally in college and only the higher grade would show on the transcript.</p>
<p>entomom, thanks for the suggestion, just posted it there now</p>
<p>

<p>No, there’s a national clearinghouse. You are required to send all transcripts…if for no better reason than you give the universities your word that you sent them all transcripts. You would have a permanent transcript with your local college, with your Organic Chemistry grade from them, and a permanent transcript from your “regular” college. Do well the first time, college is the adult world =)</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>So, you are against me taking a more higher level science or math course (such as organic chem) at a local college next year?</p>
<p>I’m just telling you to be careful. =)
Obviously you’re qualified for Organic Chemistry, you just don’t want to go to your local college and kind of blow off it, or get senioritis, because you can “just do it again” and then screw yourself for med school. 
It’s up to you. </p>
<p>The people on the med school forum should be able to explain the problems with AP credit and med school.</p>
<p>I see what you mean, thanks for your help. I think ill have to talk to my counsler a little bit more about this also.</p>
<p>still waiting for a reply in the pre-med forum</p>
