Senior Class Schedule Help

I'm going to be a Senior next year, and this year I've only taken AP Bio.

Currently I'm signed up for:
AP Chem (2 periods)
AP Phys C (2 periods)
AP Calc AB (1 period w/ a 2period lab day)
AP EnglishLang (1 per.)
AP Psych (1 per.)

The above would be my complete schedule aside from Lunch and Phys Ed
My AP Science classes are double periods, which take a lot out of my schedule. I'm wondering if I should drop any of those APs to take AP Italian. Would the course load for the above schedule be too much? I also do Track and Field, and some clubs throughout the year.

*I'm intending to major in Biomedical Engineering, btw.

Biology: 5
Italian:
Calc AB:
Phys C:
EngLang:

Wow. That's a lot of AP classes. If you are VERY organized and don't mind giving up most, if not all, of your social life, then you may be able to take on this schedule. I'm not going to lie, it's hard. There's a few other thread's similar to this. I would check those out too, if I were you. Just to see what other people of said for similar situations.

~late, I know, sorry....

I agree with der - you're in for a challenging year. Also, based on what I've seen, if you haven't taken physics B or CP physics, and/or you're just starting calculus, you might be in for a tough time in physics C considering it's all calculus based. Just saying....

I'm taking Honors Physics this year along with Honors PreCalc. Yeah, it might be a bit much, but considering the boring electives, and lack of interesting courses at my school, I would go ahead with the schedule if anything.

you should definetly take AP Lang. It was by far the easiest AP I've seen.

I have done comparable loads of work, and lived through it (just barely). Just keep organized and make a good schedule (and KEEP up with the schedule). In terms of literature, I find myself getting too distracted by the details and the stories, rather than keep my eyes on the big themes.
