10th grade:

AP WORLD HISTORY

AP SS

AP BIOLOGY

AP CHEMISTRY

AP SPANISH

12th grade:

AP CALCULUS

AP Physchology

(sorry if i spelled physchology wrong)

And I'm not exactly sure what kind of English/SS I'm taking

Answer 1

This seems kind of ridiculous. Wouldn't you rather have a life than be valedictorian? You should have a balance in your school life, between sports, friends and your studies while having everything at a moderate/challenging level. Only yourself would be able to tell if you're up to this, nobody on the internet could.

Answer 2

^ She puts AP Calculus twice cause there are two levels of it: AB and BC.

I don't suggest you take all AP classes.  That's straight up killing yourself and your social life.  All you'll be doing is studying.  Depending on your school, they have the option in taking regular, honors, or AP level.  Instead of taking the AP level, take the honors level instead. But if you're good at the subject, take it.  It'll still give you the same credit if your school gives the same extra credit for honors classes as it does with AP classes... and what if you don't even pass some of your AP exams? You'd waste... hundreds of dollars.

Oh and 11th grade english is Literature & Composition; 12th is Language & Composition.

11th grade social studies is U.S. History; 12th is U.S. Government & Politics.

Answer 3

It seems like an awful lot, make sure this is what you really want to do and that you are willing to dedicate a lot of your time for studying for all of this but if your up for it im sure it will be a good challenge.

Answer 4

Oh my gosh, your killing yourself. Also, why are you retaking AP classes? You have AP Calculus in 11th grade, and also in 12th grade. You only need to take it once unless you fail. Also, AP classes give a c**p load of homework on weekends, so you may not have time to go to the mall and stuff.

Answer 5

you're crazy!

easy there buddy,

you're junior year will be tough already with all the tests! trust me.

Answer 6

oh wow, you are just like me.. I will advice to take it easy and don't rush into things. I also did that when i was in high school and i loaded myself on every subject that i can grab on and i just drowned myself in the sea of work and now it turned me into a workaholic. You know, work is like drugs. When you do that in a day-to-day basis, then it can lead to addiction sometimes. So, if you really really really want to be a valedictorian, my advice is get a study group so you wouldn't be too overwhelmed on the amount of workload and take it easy.  

Answer 7

uhm. this doesn't make sense.

Their isn't a need to take AP calc twice.

And, I believe that most schools don't offer AP eng, until your senior year. but idk.

and why would you take AP bio, and AP chem in 11th AND 12th. Are you planning on failing?

Ap spanish in 11th AND 12th? what spanish are you in now, goodness.

I'm sorry, but, you should talk to your guidance counselor about this. I think you're getting ahead of yourself.
