Which classes to take for senior year?

Applying to College
1

<p>Registration for classes is coming up and i am in a weird situation. I will be a senior next year and know that I want to major in pharmacy.</p>

<p>Here's what classes I will take next year:</p>

<ul>
<li>AP Gov/ Econ</li>
<li>AP English 12</li>
<li>AP Environmental Science</li>
<li>Anatomy & Physiology</li>
</ul>

<p>For the last two classes I could either take:
1. Chemical Technology and Photography</p>

<p>or </p>

<ol>
<li>Pharmacy Clerk at a vocational school (will last 2 class period long).</li>
</ol>

<p>What option should I choose if I am majoring in pharmacy? The problem with the pharmacy clerk is that it is at a vocational school (not sure if it will be easy to find a job) and the good thing is I will gain experience in the field before entering college. What would you do if you were in this situation?</p>

<p>If you’re planning to apply to a selective college your proposed senior schedule, with the exception of AP English, is not strong – too many soft courses. I would recommend that you take different and core courses – in math, in science and in language. If you haven’t done so and your school offers an advance chemistry course (AP Chemistry?) that would be a good choice; in math a course in statistics or calculus or, if you haven’t yet taken it, pre-calculus; in language a continuation of whatever language you’ve taken so far.</p>

<p>The Pharmacy Clerk position should help your application, so I would recommend it instead of additional courses.</p>

<p>the problem is i’ve already taken those courses. </p>

<p>Sophomore Yr:</p>

<ul>
<li>AP Euro History</li>
<li>AP Spanish 4</li>
<li>Precal Honors</li>
<li>Chem Honors</li>
<li>P.E.</li>
<li>English 10 Honors</li>
</ul>

<p>over the summer AP Psychology</p>

<p>Junior Yr:

  • AP Calculus BC
  • AP English 11
  • AP Chemistry
  • AP Biology
  • Physics Honors
  • U.S. History</p>
