APUSH and AP BIO

I'm a junior and im taking both of these classes (APUSH and AP BIO). Is it a good choice, or should i drop one? I know both teachers are extremely demanding and give heavy workloads, but i need some advice from someone who has taken both classes already.

I haven't taken AP Bio, but I did take APUSH, AP Physics B, and AP Calculus in my junior year. It's been my experience that if you're willing to put forth the effort, and you're good at picking up facts and date and information in general, then you should be able to succeed without killing yourself, not to say that it's hard, but there are a lot of people who have taken several AP's at once and still maintained a social life. It depends on how much time you're willing to give up and how much you want to take the course I suppose.

You seem like a smart person, and if you aren't lazy, I'm sure you can pull off the course load. You can always feel out your classes tomorrow and change if you feel you'll be overwhelmed. Just remember that a good support group can help to carry you as well. Friends, study groups, family, and we're here to help you too. And your AP teachers will certainly understand if you feel you'll have a hard time.

yeah. i'm kinda an overachiever. So something made me join tennis, and im already in science olympiad, nhs, class president, president of a community service group, play baseball and golf. thats what scares me a little. i dont wanna go to deep into the ocean, ya know. my ma told me im psycho! seriously.

but you're right about the support group. My parents and teachers push me to do my best, as does my best friend and co-valedictorian.

you seem really cool though, are you still in high school?
