Is this a good schedule?
I have A’s and 1 C+ in my honors history but all A’s in my other honors classes?

This is a good schedule, especially if you bring up your history grade. I commend you for taking two math classes next year! It’s good to take math courses through calculus, which you can take your senior year since you’re doubling up next year.

One tip:
Colleges love to see that students are challenging themselves. If you have A’s in your honors courses, you’re probably pretty smart, so why not take an AP class (if your school offers them)? Even if you get a B in the class, taking the most rigorous classes available to you looks great of your transcript.

I would recommend taking just one next year because most AP classes are geared towards juniors and seniors. You could take AP US HIstory, AP Psych, or AP Human Geography. Then, in your junior and senior years, you could take AP English, AP Bio, AP Chem… There are a myriad of AP courses in most subjects! I recommend both AP English classes.
