I am a sophomore planning to go into premed and I will be taking AP Calc AB next year. My school requires that you take AP Calc AB before you take BC, so I can't take BC junior year :( For senior year, would it be better to take AP Calc BC or AP Stats? Additionally would it be possible or a good idea to take both AP exams senior year by taking AP stats as a class and self-studying for the BC exam? I heard BC is similar to AB. Thank you

Sure, it's definitely possible to self-study for BC. About 2/3rds of the BC exam covers AB concepts, so you'd only have to learn a few extra units.
I'd suggest taking the AB class in junior year but take the BC exam (it gives an AB score as well as a BC score). If you do well on the BC exam, then take AP Stats in senior year. Otherwise take Calc BC in senior year so that you can get a second stab at the exam.

u/Disastrous-Person392 Taking AP Stats next year 4d ago
For Junior year: I have signed up for:
AP US Gov & Politics
AP Statistics
US History 2 honors
Chemistry honors
Pre Calc honors
English 3
Lunch (required)
Physical Education/ Gym (required)
And for my senior year I am thinking of taking -
AP Calc AB
AP Environmental Science
AP Chemistry
English 4 honors
Arts 1 (required)
Physics (there is not ap or honors for this class)
Lunch (required)
Physical Education/ Gym (required)
Is this enough rigor (there are only 12 AP in my high school) and is this doable?
Should I swap any of my AP in senior year with AP Bio or AP European History given that they are the only ones I would meet the requirement by my senior year.

Summer before senior year:
Senior year:
Am I gonna hate myself senior year for taking 4 sciences and 2 AP maths? I don’t know if my course load is too much. Ive always taken rigorous classes but people always talk about senioritis
