[quote=Anonymous]Unless your kid is a real science kid, I'm not sure I'd recommend both AP physics 1 and AP Bio the same year. It's doable, but remember that they'll be in a bunch of other AP classes. My kid to AP Physics 1 sophomore year (along with honors chem). It was her most time consuming course and the one (along with honors precalc) where she had the most borderline grade. She's in AP Bio this year (junior year) and it it is her most time consuming course. It's double period, so it should be, but it is by far the most time consuming. Very different courses. AP physics 1 is almost a math class. AP bio is mostly memorization. It seems to me that if you do both junior year, that will take 3 periods. Add AP calc, AP lang (i.e., English), and AP foreign language (all of which are more or less expected) and you only have one period for an 'easy' class. [/quote]
