[quote=Anonymous]You don't really describe how selective of a college your daughter is thinking about. At the tippy top schools, the idea of an abbreviated schedule itself is going to be scrutinized. Even at state flagships, three classes is going to be questioned. English, math, and 2 APs sounds like 4 anyway. I don't mean that the abbreviated schedule (even 3 classes) is a problem, I mean that the internship or college course(s) it is allowing needs to be better than what she would get in HS. If the internship is good enough, they won't care about science. But it sounds like there is no internship yet which means it is unlikely to be good enough to take care of all flaws in the application. Now a college course(s), I'm guessing it will be like the two AP social studies classes. I think math, AP English, 2 AP SS and a college course would be fine if it doesn't lead to dropping most HS based ECs, without replacing them.[/quote]
