[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How does the below look for an MCPS kid not targeting a top 50 school? Trying to choose APs that he's actually interested in. He had straight As in 9th grade, 10th grade is looking like a mix of As and Bs for 1st semester.

[b]10th[/b]

Pre Calc
Honors Chem
Honors English 10
Honors Spanish 4
AP Gov
Electives: journalism, Health A

[b]11th[/b]
Calc with applications
AP ES
Honors World History
Honors Spanish 5
Honors English 11
AP Psych
AP Comp Sci Princ

[b]12th[/b]
AP Lang
Forensic Science
AP Human Geography
AP Stats
Sign Language
Health B/other elective
Some other elective

For a top 50? No AP in a hard science, no ap calculus, ending foreign language without an ap. Can they throw a football really well?  [/quote]

What is wrong with AP ES? It doesn’t count as rigorous? I thought it is a lab science. My 11th grader is planning to take it next year and is aiming for top 25. Will have taken honors Bio, honors Chem, honors physics and can take the AP version of Bio, Chem, Physics or APES in 12th. [/quote]
