Three Years Science vs more

<p>Freshman year I took honors biology, sophomore honors chemistry.
This year (jr) i'm not taking any science due to scheduling
Planning on physics sr year.
Any disadvantages?</p>

<p>nope. Just get those requirements done. I took H bio freshman year. H chem, H physics and APES sophomore year, H anatomy junior year and no science senior year. It dosent really matter that much as long as you get the required sciences. </p>

<p>Also make sure that you dont apply as a science major. Having 2 sciences before you apply wont look too great.</p>

<p>How many science classes do you need to graduate? You aren’t taking a science this year because of scheduling issues. Do you need three science classes to complete graduation requirements? How will you feel if you have to drop a class you love to fit in a science for graduation requirements? You are putting science off this year. You won’t have that option your senior year. It may work out fine or not. That is the risk. Also, having completed only two sciences at the time of college applications may not look good if you are interested in anything STEM related not just science.</p>

<p>I need 3 to graduate. Some of my friends took both chem & physics this year & are now taking AP bio. Those who just took chem with me are either taking physics or AP bio.</p>

<p>I just dont have room with 2 APs, 2 studyhalls for extra time for my cerebral palsy, calc & spanish.</p>

<p>Im not cut out for AP sciences.</p>

<p>Is science or spanish more important in admissions? I emailed colleges & they wanted 3 or 4 yrs of spanish although my speech is really bad so I dropped science to fulfill their requirement…</p>

<p>Dont know what i want to major in, maybe math or history or writing or neuro stuff…</p>

<p>I can’t answer which is more important - it depends on where you apply and what major you pick. What I do know is that schedule conflicts stink. My daughter did not take a class she really would have benefited from because it conflicted with band, a class she was not willing to give up. Fortunately for her the organic biochem class was an elective not a graduation requirement.</p>

<p>if your school offers dual enrollment you can take an easy science class at a community college.</p>

<p>Depending on what colleges you are looking at it could be an issue. I know some of the more selective school require or strongly recommend taking four years of science…</p>
