[quote=Anonymous]I have a sophomore now and have a course selection question as we prepare for college. If this question is not allowed here I apologize.

He has to take at least 3 AP classes by Junior year (school rule). He is taking AP Computer Science A as a sophomore. He will need at least 2 AP classes next year. He will take AP Calc A/B for sure. Trying to figure out a 2nd AP class that is not too insane as I'm sure  AP Calc A/B will be stressful.

I know many kids take 3+ AP courses junior and senior year. That is not my son.

DS has ADHD and has poor working memory. Classes that require lots of memorization are not great for him. We think he needs to avoid all the AP Social Studies like APUSH, AP World History, etc... Any recommendations on a good class to pair with AP Calc A/B that won't overwhelm him too much. All his other classes will be honors. He does not care if the AP test is hard. He cares about the class and whether it will destroy his GPA. So if for example, AP XYZ is not a tough class but is a tough exam then he would be open to it. If AP MNOP is a tough class but an easy AP exam, then he would rather pass.

Thanks!
