[quote=Anonymous]^^ a sample schedule for a kid in advanced math junior year would be: AP Calc, AP history, AP Foreign Lang. 2x AP science (Biology & Chemistry or Physics) and AP Stats. I was not aware you could get AP English in 11th-- I though it was honors only-- so you can't make a 5.0 because English honors would get the .5 bump, and not 1.0. So straight As would be a 4.8 or so, not a 5.0. But maybe some schools
Let you take AP English language in 11th and AP lit in 12th?  DC's HS does not, but maybe it is possible some places?  But that is on day to get at least a 4.8 junior year. Senior year: could do AP English, AP foreign language lit, the AP science you skipped, AP history, mutivariable Calc (post AP gets a 1.0 bump) and 2 throwaway classes, like AP psych and AP economics, which makes a 5.0 for straight As possible.

But, I think it's sad that kids are dropping art, band, orchestra, drama, academy classes, etc to take AP classes with marginal value (like psych) just to inflate GPA. [/quote]
