What to do if I have no APs/Honors/Extracurriculars (a shy homeschooled Junior in HS who wants to pursue either becoming a lawyer or something in the forensic science area)?

I feel very behind and stressed because though I do make good grades, I know that I should have at least a few of these things but I don’t. I know the best way is for me to just do something about it but I’m not sure on how to go about it. I also feel stressed because I’m not 100% for sure which career path I should pursue: law or forensic science. I will take any advice. Do you think that it would be a good idea if I take any APs/Honors next year or will it be too late? I was thinking of taking dual enrollment next year and some CLEP exams this year. And, what extracurriculars should I do as of now, and for my senior year—ones that match the careers i want to do or a variety of different things that interest me? (sorry if i got off topic!!!) Thank you in advance because any help/advice will be appreciated!

Should I take AP Biology or Honors Anatomy/Physiology HS Junior Year?

I've already discussed with my counselor on what classes I will be taking next year as a Junior. I'm taking two APs for sure, which are AP English Language and AP US History. However, I'm determined to do another AP which is AP Biology. I don't know whether I should take AP Biology or Honors Anatomy or maybe do both! The problem is I have to replace one class, and I thought of replacing my art class but I still need the one-year requirement for visual and performing arts to get into a 4-year college. Right now, my counselor has placed me to be in Honors Anatomy next year. I haven't talked to her yet about changing my schedule if possible, but I will very soon. Because I want to major in medicine hopefully in college, AP Biology would help me later on and I plan on taking AP Chemistry in my Senior year. #uci #highschool #advancedplacement #aps
