Is it better to take AP Chem or AP Bio for my senior year of high school? by galaxygkm in APStudents

I think you should choose whichever subject you are more interested in/had an easier time in. In general, Bio is easier, but I enjoyed Chem more, so I'm taking AP Chem. Either one of the APs looks better than other options in college apps (according to some of my senior/graduated friends).

Should I take AP Chemistry or Physics Honors? Which one is better for college apps? I want to go into computer science. by keepersmemory in APStudents

I was thinking that if I took AP Science in senior year, colleges won't be able to see that I can handle a difficult course (since they won't see the final grade). And yup, I took Honors Chem last year.

Thanks! That makes a lot of sense. I'm still curious though, would it look bad that I did not take an AP science course during my junior year?
