So I’m trying to decide which schedule is best for my senior year - I wasn’t originally going to take a language but I was told by my top school (UVA) that I would have better chances if I took one.
The classes that aren’t up for change:
I am trying to decide between AP Psych/AP Euro, and AP English/Honors English.
It would be really helpful to see what schedule would be seen as most advantageous.
Just to make sure I’m reading this correctly: you will take AP Psych or AP Euro and AP English or Honors English, right?
Honors v. AP English can really only be answered best by you. How strong are you at English? How demanding are the honors v. AP classes at your school? Do you hope to be able to take the AP exam to potentially earn college credit? How is the teacher that teaches each class?
As for AP Psych v. AP Euro, you should take whatever interests you more!
Just a few more things:
-I see you’re taking Latin I. How many years of foreign language have you taken previously? Most schools require at LEAST two years of the same language, preferably three or four years of the same language. If you’ve taken another language previously you may want to consider sticking with that language.
-Just checking because I see you have AP bio on your schedule … have you had a whole year of chem, a whole year of bio, and a whole year of physics? If you haven’t taken one of those, you should take that in lieu of AP Bio. (Unless AP bio would be your one year of bio.)
Good luck!
