[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bio, chem, physics, 4 years language, are pretty much the basics for college.

Up to the student whether they want to do regular, honors, or AP.

Physics is usually the fun course though. Will depend on the teacher. But wouldn't avoid. Not taking physics is going to take away a lot of opportunities.

+1.

This is the usual or customary set, along with US History, World History, and English every year. At many college admissions offices, but not all, if any of these are missing then it raises a yellow flag or red flag about why DC did not take one or more of that set.  It is difficult for anyone here to know precisely how any particular school would view a missing course, but admissions chances pretty clearly would be better if one had all of the above.

Quoted poster above is correct that regular physics would look much better to Admissions folks than no physics at all.

The ONLY exception I can think of to the science expectation would be someone applying narrowly to a college of fine arts, and not applying to any broader arts & sciences college or arts & letters college, with a clear stated interest in being an Art or Music or Theatre major.[/quote]
