What are some really good honour classes I can takeAnswered
Hi, I'm a 15 year old girl from Nigeria and I'm currently in SS2 (Grade 11).
I need suggestions on what honor classes I can take to improve my chances of getting into one of the Ivy League schools.

Do you have AP classes? I suggest taking AP classes if they are offered at your school. Even though Ivy League Schools are not all about grades and scores, you still need to be at least average in order to be considered, I think. Most Ivy League School applicants have more than a couple of AP exam scores by the end of their senior year. I know one Yale student who took 13 (?) AP classes. However, it also depends on your school, and college admission officers check your school profile. If your school does not offer AP classes, you can do online. Also, you don't have to do more than 10 AP classes if your environment prevents you from taking it.
By the way, going back to your question, I would say, take honour classes related to your major or interest. In my case, I took Honors Biology.

Thanks a bunch. I don't think I can take AP classes online so I was wondering if it was possible to just self-study for the AP exams. I'm also thinking of self-studying and taking 10 AP exams.
