Am I capable of handling both AP Environmental Science and AP Biology my senior year?
I have been a straight A student these past three years. Do they essentially cover the same material? I'm also planning to take AP Calculus AB/ BC (count as two different AP classes), AP Literature, and either AP Government or AP Economics (I might just take both in Honors and take AP Psychology). I know if I work hard, I can do it, but which classes would be easiest in my schedule? I essentially need six APs. :)

easiest?
well then...
AP Lit.
AP Gov.
AP Ec.
AP Psych.
AP Bio. [I loved it]
AP Calculus.... only if you REALLY like math.
good luck.
as far as envir. science and bio I think envir. is more like ecology [ecosystems and such] while bio is more about all forms of life [bacteria,animals,plants,a little ecology, DNA, genetics, etc.]
Hi, I take 7 APs currently (senior year): chemistry, physics C, calculus BC, english literature, macroeconomics, microeconomics, and government. Enviro and Bio cover some of the same information, but Biology is more important for college. If I were you, I would not take AP environmental science. It is a joke class and doesn't look as good as another AP science (chemistry, biology, physics b, physics c). Also, don't take Calculus AB and BC. That just looks weird. All of the classes you listed are pretty easy APs. Economics and Literature are probably the hardest and psychology the easiest. Also, I get to bed before 11:30 even with a full schedule of APs, so you can do it.
If you are even thinking of going into any science field in college, you should take the AP Bio. I don't think APES is necessary unless you want to go into a field that's related to environmental science. I would take AP English instead of creative writing, because that, too, will prepare you more for college than a creative writing course.
