So this is what my schedule looks like for now for two years:
I at LEAST need a B in Spanish. I am taking the Spanish SL test, but the class is an AP/HL class because a separate class is not offered so both years are equivalent to the (AP Spanish Language and AP Spanish Lit) courses at my school.
Junior year:
English HL
Physics HL
Math HL
Spanish SL in HL class (AP Spanish Lang)
Art SL
HOA HL
TOK
Soccer
Senior Year:
English HL
Physics HL
Math HL
Spanish SL in HL Class (AP Spanish Lit)
AP Chem
HOA HL
TOK
Soccer
Is this course load too much? Or is it manageable if I only need a B in Spanish. The thing that scares me is that senior year I am going to have AP Chem (which is the hardest at my school) and AP Physics (also one of the hardest at my school) and AP Spanish (I'm a non native and it's literature but the natives say it's super easy). Plus college apps! My only other option is to take German Ab Initio instead which all my counselors are saying will hurt my look in college admissions since I did not take the most rigorous language course when I had the opportunity. However, since I am going to major in Biology, I cannot have my science grades suffer for my language grades. But I just need a B in Spanish because it is equivalent to an A in German. What do you think and what would you do if you were in my shoes?
