They started offering that next year, I'm not taking it yet though, I might drop one of my other courses like my stupid HTML class that doesn't teach you anything for it.  :)

You'd be surprised at how much colleges look for well-roundedness.

They're not going to reject you just because you didn't take art if you've got everything else. And considering that newby is going to end up applying to somewhere technology-based, I doubt they're *really* going to care about art.  But that's just me.  I hate art, and I don't have to take it because I took part in the summer musical building sets. I own.

They will if you've taken all the same classes as someone who also took Art History while you didn't.

Again, you'd be really surprised at how many colleges look at well-roundedness.  The college application process is much more an analsys of your personality.  It certainly heavily concerns academics, but you're going to be spending a great amount of time at this school -- they want to make sure your personality is an acceptable fit for their school.  The classes you take can be a powerful representation of what suits your personality.

It doesn't matter if you hate it.  That has nothing to do with the fact colleges are going to like the fact that Newby is taking a diverse range of classes.

I would take more AP classes if my school actually had them and they didn't suck.
For us, Trig/Math Analysis/Pre-calc is synonymous.

My school doesn't even have an AP program.  Be happy yours does. ;)
