Are 8-9 AP classes out of the 13 my school offers good enough for top-tier schools?
My school only allows sophomores to take 1 AP (world), and we can take as many as we want in junior and senior years. However, there are a bunch of other graduation requirements you need to fulfill on top of AP courses, and they also require pre-requisite classes for a lot of them. Like, to take ap calc ab/bc, you have to take pre-calc, and you're not allowed to do it over the summer. Unless you started algebra in 7th grade (which isn't possible in our district), you'll need to take pre-calc in junior year, leaving ab/bc for senior year. Also, in my school, a lot of the less popular AP courses (physics C, computer science) are only taught one period, so that also causes scheduling conflicts. Btw, all of the AP courses my school offers are APUSH, AP World, AP CALC AB & BC, AP Physics C, AP Computer Science Principles, AP Computer Science A, AP Lang & Lit, AP Seminar, AP Bio, AP Chem, and AP Gov.
