Is Advanced Biology a recommended class to take in high school?

Answer

I just graduated from Boston College Law School and would say the answer depends on the person and what the person is looking for in school. If a student is looking to get into a well respected college, often times taking the best classes is advisable, even if you may obtain a slightly lower grade. On the other hand, if the class is clearly too difficult for you, a low grade could be more harmful than not taking the class. Personally, I always took the most difficult classes that were offered and would suggest that if you can do the same, you should.

On a side note, I am currently at RPI (if mentioning that is necessary) and it definitely depends on what you're studying in college. If your major is biochemistry, then take AP Bio to look good, and retake biology in college. If your major is going to be English or Mechanical Engineering, take it and it will look good, and you can transfer the credit as an elective. Either way, it's definitely useful.
