Hi I'm currently a junior at an American high school in Washington state and I'm not sure what science course I'd like to take next year.
I have taken Experimental Science, Biology and Chemistry, and I'm not sure if I should take Physics, Advanced Biology or AP Biology.
Some colleges I am interested are NYU, Columbia, Boston College and Yale among others. I'm definitely not planning to study Science in college; I'm more interested/have stronger abilities in English and the Humanities. (to be more specific, I'd like to study Communications or Education).
The other classes I have signed up to take for my senior year are AP English, AP Government, AP Calculus, Video Communications and Journalism. Outside of school, I also run my school's National Honor Society, Art Appreciation Club and a few other things.
I hear colleges require a certain amount of "lab sciences" and I have only taken two (unless Experimental Science counts as a lab science), so what should I take for science next year?
Should I take Physics since it's a "basic" science? Many past Physics students said it is an extremely difficult class. And I am also nervous to sign up for AP Bio because that takes up extra time to complete labs and is also an extremely difficult class. I'm scared that these classes would bring my GPA down, but is Physics necessary? I'm most comfortable with Advanced Bio but what do I need to do?
I'd appreciate any advice! Thank you so much!
