Okay, so at my school, we have 7 classes that you can take per year. My senior year, I plan on taking 6, even though I take 7 now (my junior year). My question is, does it look better if I take 7 classes, and have no free period, or take 6 and get a free period?
These are the classes I am taking next year:
- AP English Literature
- AP US History
- Pre-Calculus
- Honors Physics
- Religion IV
- American Government
- Debating whether to take this class -----> Journalism
With my honors and AP classes, should I take a study hall, or should I take the journalism class (the only other class I’m interested in), and beef up my transcript?
I’m really caught in between with this decision because I want to have the best chance possible getting into the following colleges: Ohio State, University of IL, University of WI, University of TX, University of MA (I live here), University of CA at San Diego, and Northeastern University.
Thanks for any guidance or help you can provide
