What Classes Should I take my Senior Year. I want to Major in Civil Engineering.
Answered

Hello Hi, I am a junior in high school. I have decided that I really want to major in Civil Engineering, I wanted to know what classes should I take my senior year for the best chance for preparation to be accepted into a good college.

This Year I am taking: AP LANG, AP Spanish, Algebra 2/Trigonometry, Chemistry (Not ChemChomm) Chemistry at my school is considered to be the harder class, Virtual Enterprise, and a Video Production Class.

Since I now know that I want to major in Civil Engineering, what classes should I take for my Senior Year.

I am thinking about Taking PreCalculus over the summer so that way, I can do this.

Perhaps: Regular English, Either AP Physics 1 or Regular Physics, AP Calc AB, Gov/Econ, and an Environmental Design Class Offered at my school.

What would you recommend for my situation. Thank You Very Much

Def take AP Physics, take Ap calc if possible those are great base classes. If possible AP stats is a good option and I think design classes, robotics if possible is good as well. Hope this helped

I recommend taking pre-calculus over the summer and then the schedule you have proposed. AP Lang or Lit would be preferable to Regular English, and AP Gov would be slightly more major-relevant than AP Econ for you. Hope this helps!
