Which High School Class Should I Pick? Please Help!!!?

So I definitely want to go into the field of teaching but next year I am doubling up in science and taking Chemistry and AP Environmental next year but that only leaves one period left for an elective in my schedule. Should I take AP Psychology or Careers in Education. I really want to take careers in ed but I don't want it to seem like I want to do something with science in the future. It would be my junior year in high school I'm not sure if colleges want to see me dedicated to teaching or if they want to see me take as many AP classes as I can.

If I'm in between careers what advice can you give me to help decide between the two?

I am a junior in high school who lives in Virginia. I want to go into the Air force for the benefits but I am already on track to becoming a high school graduating CNA I don't know exactly what the best option is for me and I am on the fence about everything. I want to know more about both fields before I jump head first into either career. I know that while being in the air-force I can also work as a CNA but I am not sure if there are any better options out there for me.

I wanted to do a research paper on how water quality affects the human body and causes specific things to happen. However I’m only a tenth grader in high school and was confused on how to get started with it I was also wondering if I could publish this research paper so the work doesn’t go to waste? I know this kind of research was already done but I just wanted to see it for myself in my specific area.?

I was going to start with sampling water in different buildings around where I live but I can’t figure out how to do it beyond that.

Is it okay to not take a science junior year

I am currently a sophomore in high school and I want to go into pre med. I have all my science credits from taking bio chem and biomedical science and I do not have room for another junior year. Is it ok to not take science junior year but take physics senior year. In addition I want to do the certified nursing class at my school but is it worth it if I wanna become a doctor and major in biology Because the class takes up 2 blocks so If I don't do it I could take more science classes. ?

Do universities care about what school you come from?

Currently, I don't go to a great school and admissions at top schools are quite low, However, I have the choice to change schools for my last 2 years to a better one, but I am a bit hesitant to leave since I am quite comfortable, but I don't want to stay if it makes a big difference. My current school does not give much extracurricular activity choices or any big opportunities that may help and I want to take medicine which I think makes it harder to get into a better university.

Is IB worth it?

I am in grade 10 and very soon I have to decide if I want to take IB or A levels, most people tell me IB is very hard and useless but people who took A levels say it was too easy, and wish they took IB. I want to be a dermatologist in the future as well.

What are the recommended amount of classes needed or need to be taken for getting in a decently good tech college/university #Fall24?

As a high school student, I haven't researched anything about tech unis or colleges, and I think I know that each school is subjective towards the recommended classes taken for their entry, but I want to know an overall of the classes I need to take in order to enter into at least a decent tech college.
