<p>You guys are all INSANE. </p>

<p>I have a fairly rigorous schedule at my Canadian prep school, but AP’s are reserved for seniors (AP Bio can be taken as a junior), and we only have…6? We take all of our classes the whole year (no semesters), and ECs are huge as well. </p>

<p>Anywho, keeping in mind that I go to a restrictive prep school and this is all I could take:</p>

<p>World History to 1600 (taken a year early)
Japanese Level 2 (also taken a year early)
English (too easy, so I’ve slacked off quite a bit…it hasn’t been pretty :P)
Principles of Mathematics II (same as Algebra II, I think…?)
Science (we do chemistry, biology, thermodynamics, optics…pretty basic)
Canadian Geography (required -_-)
Communications Technology (taken so I could go to LA in the fall, and for a break)
Civics (online required course)
Computer Science </p>

<p>I must look like a joke compared to you geniuses, but I digress.</p>

42

<p>wow, my school only let us take ap world, and even then it was restricted to only a few sophomores… we don’t really get options until junior year, but anyways!</p>

<p>I made my junior/senior courses 100% AP and got a 34 on the ACT. I got into UCLA/Vanderbilt ect. with that, so your schedule is more than enough!</p>

<p>lol I feel like the only canadian on here, for grade 10 we only have 2 electives available (law and french for me) and the rest are required classes.</p>

49

<p>No APs at my school, not for sophs.</p>

<p>Honors Geometry, World History 10, Orchestra, Spanish IV, Western Literature, Honors bio, Phy ed, and a smattering of arts electives.</p>

50

<p>I’m a 10th grader this year. </p>

<p>Honors English 10
Honors History 10
Algebra II
Chemistry
French 3A
Spanish 1
Music Technology
Phys Ed</p>

<p>10th graders can’t take APs at my school.</p>

51

<p>Are 10th graders allowed to take as many APs as they want at most schools?</p>

52

<p>Im currently taking </p>

<p>AP World History
Pre-AP English 2
Geometry
Chemistry
Electronic Music
AP Comparative Government(Love this class!)
AP Art History</p>

53

<p>I will be taking:
AP US History
AP French 4
AP Chemistry
Algebra 2 BC (weighted as AP, no AP exam however)
Honors American Literature</p>

54

<p>I’m so jealous you guys got to take APs as sophomores, we had to wait until junior year (and even then, we could only do 1 or 2)</p>

55

<p>@UniquelyMe30: Most schools only allow sophomores to take AP World History or AP European History. But CC has a lot of people who go to really good high schools, so it looks like most schools would allow you to.</p>

56

<p>AP Euro, AP Calc, AP Stat, AP Comp Sci, AP Psych, Adv. English (Honors), Spanish 3, Spanish 4</p>

57

<p>Well, as long as you take the most advanced courses you can, that’s all anyone expects on your transcript. I got into a couple of top 10-15 colleges, and we a. aren’t allowed to start calc until senior year, and b. only have 4 AP courses at school (2 math, 2 for-lang). So take that as you will.</p>

58

<p>I took:
Chemistry Honors (AP Chem isn’t allowed until after you take honors.)
Algebra 2 Honors
AP US History
AP World History
Pre-AP English (They didn’t let us take AP Lang until junior year)
Law
Spanish 4 Honors</p>

59

<p>My Sophomore year I took</p>

<p>Honors English (Which was actually quite a bit harder than AP English Comp which I took this year)
Honors Bio
Trig
French II
World History</p>

<p>My school doesn’t offer AP classes for sophomores, so this is about as rigorous as it gets. Most sophomores are in Algebra I or Geometry, which is 2 to 3 years behind Trig. It doesn’t look like much but for my school it is :)</p>

60

<p>Ah, Sophomore Year, that was a long time ago. Here’s what I took, certainly no APs.</p>

<p>Seminar English 2 (Seminar is AP Prep, it’s considered a step above honors although it’s weighted the same)
Seminar Civics/Economics
Honors Biology
P.E. 2/Health (required, semester each)
Spanish 2
Theatre 1 (only non-freshman in it, I had just discovered my love of theatre in April of Freshman year)
Geometry</p>

<p>That was before we switched to the 4-period block schedule, so we had 7 classes all year and as a Freshman and Sophomore you only get one elective (or 2, if you aren’t on the ‘college prep’ course and have to take a foreign language, or if you took a foreign language in middle school and were able to test out of the first year of it), which kind of sucks now that I think about it.</p>
