This was a good workout.
Biology stuff is really fascinating. You can derive so many chemicals from plants/fungi/bacteria, and you can even go as far as genetically manipulate them (my gedankebeispiel (thought-example, ie, the example I’m thinking of when I say this) is the Penecillin mold, as they genetically modified a variant so it produces high amounts of penecillin)
I could see myself working with stuff like this. I love chemistry and more specifically organic and bio-organic chemistry.
I think I might take 3 science classes next year. AP Chem, AP Bio, and AP Physics 2. Il also be doing AP Calc AB, and I guess I need an English and History class. Hmm. I would have a maximum possibility of doing 7 AP courses. That’s not doable, since having a max of 8 credits, I need 2 0.5 credits of strength (my lifting), and 2 credits study halls. My maximum course load (if I include all study halls) would be 5 AP courses (or just courses in general, history and English don’t have to be AP, but I would like that). So History and English. Math is required of course. I have only 2 extra AP courses, and 1 has to be science. I only get to choose 1 AP courses. I guess Il do Chem, since I can learn Bio stuff at the college program. Its good for me think out loud on this site, I think.
There is a “One door closes, and a window opens” opportunity to this, however. Coach says that we are allowed to come into his strength during study halls. So I can get work done that I need, and then go to strength the rest of the time. That means I can cheat in an extra class (Plus I can just go after school to do finish lifting). It won’t be graded, of course, but, fine with me. Il have the opportunity to then have my extra AP Bio course.
Thoughts? I think this might be too much AP stuff, but at the same time, Il only be taking 6 AP classes (History English I don’t want, but AP Calc AB, AP physics, AP chem, and AP bio I do want to take). I think I could manage it, but then again maybe not.
I have the option to hold off AP courses until senior year, but then colleges won’t see it really.
