I saw the thread on AP classes for freshmen. I know that taking 8-12 AP classes over the four years of high school is pretty common for high achievers. However, I have a specific question about how many is common for junior year.
DS1 took one AP class as a freshman (Human Geography) and two more AP classes as a sophomore. He signed up for his classes for his junior year and he has five AP classes on his schedule and I am wondering if this is common or too many. The classes are AP World Language, AP US History, AP Physics, AP Spanish, and AP Computer Science.
DS1 is a very diligent student who gets good grades. He also has a really busy schedule outside of his school schedule.
