Junior year/hs in general?

Question:im going to junior year in two days and took only 1 Ap and 2 honors, and i got a lot of B's(includes 2 B-'s) sophomore year. Next year though im taking 4 AP's, but im still not sure if i can get into a decent or good UC, anyone got tips from personal experience or a friend?

Answers:
you should be fine.honestly i'm betting your parents are pressuring you waaaay too much because that's what my parents have done with me...really? AP's are good if you can handle 'em 1 AP class your junior year will be good...i'm a junior this year and i'm taking 3 AP courses all for the first time...it's a lot of work but i have the time...so really i wouldn't worry about your senior year just yet...see how you do this year with the 1 AP class and see if you think you can handle 4 in a year when you have to pick classes in the fall...
as far as the decent or good UC? you should be fine...just make sure that you work and get those grades! colleges like the fact that you challenge yourself with AP's so even if you don't make straight A's they'll still take that into account as well.good luck!
AP classes really help with getting into college, but you need to make sure that your GPA doesn't suffer. as long as your overall GPA is an A then i think you should be fine. I suggest not taking a lot of AP's during your senior year. I took four of them and it was a lot of work. However, even though it was hard, i feel more prepared going to college this year.

It also depends on what type of school you want to go to. If you plan on going to Harvard, i would consider taking more AP's, but if you want to go to a good state school or an average one in general, you'll be fine.

hope this helped.
