If you want to score on the AP, 3 is the max you should take at a time.. If you want to experiment and see what you like or might not like to take in college, 4 should be the max. If you don't have a good interest in the topic I suggest that you do not take the class, simply becuase there is usually a lot of work required in the course so if you hate the topic already, you're going to have to deal with it for the rest of year. Some people say that college classes are easier than AP because the classes are more broken down into several different classes ie US history would be broken down into different eras in college and AB Calculus would be broken down into 2 semesters in college. Do not take an AP class because you think that it is easy and will not require any work.. It's an AP class - if your teacher is any good, you're going to have tons of work on it, even if you think that the topic is easy..It is a good way to prepare for college though. There's a national standard for the AP. I've been taking AP/ honors from 7th grade and senior year I took a req regular class.. and it's just a joke.. But remember, don't blog yourself down with AP classes.. you still want to have time to enjoy your life ..lolz.. when it comes down to things there is abs. no point of adding too much stress in your life..
