Scheduling Conflict...?

Question

Mkay, so my high school's going to block scheduling this year (my senior year), and they've done quite a bad job with our schedules. I was supposed to take AP Biology and Honors Physics, but instead, they scheduled me for AP Bio and Latin I. I talked to my counselor about it, and we tried every possibility, but there's no way I can take Bio and Physics. What I can do is take either AP Biology OR regular level Physics. I'd really rather do Bio, but will colleges prefer to see a Physics course?

I checked online at the schools I'm interested in, and none of them really specify. They all say that they require 2-3 credits in science courses. Plus, I'm going in undeclared and doubt that I'll be going into Engineering, Math, or Physics. If I do pick a science major, it'd most likely have more to do with Biology.

What should I do? Should I call the schools? Who do I ask for when I call?

Answer 1

If the schools you are going to be applying to are schools known for science or engineering (such as MIT) then take the physics. If not the AP Biology looks better to most schools as it is an AP course.
