Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Florida

<p>So I just found out the other day that my highschool is offering only one period of AP Bio and one period of AP calc...both of which i planned on taking. It just so happens that both classes are the same period. So I have a decision to make- and I want to make a decision that would be better for my application to UF and hopefully my arrival to UF.</p>

<p>Option 1: Take AP bio and take Calc 1 & 2 at local CC
Option 2: Take AP Calc and AP Env.</p>

<p>The rest of my schedule is: AP Lit, Band, Phys H</p>

<p>And my stats are:
uw- 3.9
w- 4.4
Sat- 1420
Lots of ECs
AP-USH-4, Chem-4 Stat-5, Lang-4</p>

<p>So, which option would be better for my future- I plan to major in some sort of engineering- bio eng or nuclear- then possibly med school. Right now I am leaning towards option 2 because I would definatley get a stronger foundation in calc taking ap calc; rather than calc dual enrolling at a CC.</p>

<p>I took both AP Bio and AP Calc in high school, and even though I got 5's on both exams I'm retaking calc I and bio I, because I'm pre-med. So if you want the AP Credit to get out of a class, take the class you don't want to take in college. If you're going to take both anyways, then it depends on your strengths. Even if you're good in math, I say take AP Calc. It will be easier taking Calc I if you've already done the material at a slower pace with more explanations. AP Bio is mostly memorization, and while having a better background in bio will help in college, it's not as vital.</p>
