*I’m in-state and a Junior in high-school

I took 3 APs this year, and what should I take next year?

I’m going to take:

  • AP Physics
  • AP Calculus
  • AP Literature
  • AP Macro/Micro economics
  • Pyscology/Visual Basic (computer programming)

I want to go to UofM for business. Should I take these? I feel that I’m lacking another AP class. Should I take AP Spanish next year instead of psychology and Visual Basic? I have already had 4 years of Spanish, so I don’t know what I’d get out of another year.

AP Spanish would be useful for LSA graduation requirement if you get AP credits.

@Nakster48 the admissions page says their average GPA is 3.9+ and SAT is 1480, so once you take the SAT keep that number in mind. Your classes look good cus they like heavily weighted curriculums, and so do the ECs. Youre also in-state so youre practically in
