But, sure here it goes:
Junior:
Magnet Physics (covered AP Physics 1 and half of AP Physics 2)
AP Calc BC
Magnet Integrative STEM
Magnet Biochemistry
Magnet Organic Chemistry

Senior:
AP Physics C & ME (one year - each segment covered in one semester)
AP Biology
Magnet Multivariable/Differential Equations
Magnet Microbiology
Magnet Analytical Chemistry
Magnet Marine Biology
Magnet Astronomy

NOTE: each year all 5 core classes were covered.

DD currently in college:

11: AP Physics
12: AP Bio

DC in high school, tentatively planning on art school:

11: DE environmental science
12: not sure yet - maybe Physics? But our school only offers AP Physics, not Honors and I can't see him doing well in AP

One of my kids took

11th grade - AP environmental science
12th grade- no science!!!

humanities major with a very good extracurricular activities in high school relevant to his field of study, took extra class related to presumed major in 12th grade in place of science, had 2 T25 offers.
(since I assume that is what you are asking)

Other DS

11th grade- honors physics
12th grade- honors physics II (at school with no AP classes)

DS interested in STEM
