[quote=Anonymous]It will place him at a disadvantage if he’s going for a top 50-ish/very selective university. They’re looking for kids to take the most rigorous coursework available at their HS’s and that would include physics. If he’s applying outside the top 50, especially to a major that doesn’t require college physics or only requires non-lab physics for non-science majors - liberal arts/humanities, communications, art, music, business, etc. - it likely won’t hurt him. But his weighted GPA might end up being a little lower if Physics is an AP class and Geosystems is not. But if he didn’t do well in Physics, even if it was an AP class, that would hurt his GPA a lot more. It’s definitely a tough decision. [/quote]
