@menloparkmom well it would leave me with 3 AP classes for the year
That’s fine!!
take an additional class that interests you, IF you have time.
but REMEMBER, the FIRST semester of your Sr year you will ALSO have essentially a part time job- applying to college, which can take a LOT of time.
Applications to fill out, Essays to write and rewrite, asking teachers to write LOR’s and then making sure they follow through and submit them, submitting tests scores to college, taking any additional standardized tests [ if needed] etc, etc.
All that in addition to your homework for classes, EC’s, etc.
you will find the first semester of your SR will be a lot of work.
Dont add to the burden, [and risk have your first semester grades tank] with unnecessarily taking an additional AP class because you think it will " look good" to colleges.
