How can I bring the Children and Women home?
Not many people talk about it, but I wanna stop it. Sex trafficking both angers and disgusts me to the core and I'd like to start taking classes so I can find out how to stop it. I'm currently in 10th grade and can take any online classes I want starting next semester. I've already had a semester in Psychology which I've heard helps. But I want to know all courses I can take in high school, then ones I can take in college. Then find the job to help put it to end. I need to do something to help them, but I don't know how.

How does a college schedule differ from a highschool schedule?
I know that in college you have a major and a minor ( Or multiple minors/ majors?) and a certain amount of credits you need to take a year to graduate like in high school, but how is it different from high school? How do minors work and is it normal to take more than one or is it easier to just complete one? How do you know if you should take a double major? Is it better to take a minor or just take a few classes in a field if you have the time? I know you have someone in the school who helps you fit things into your schedule but how flexible is it compared to high school scheduling? And are some classes at strict times or do they depend on students' interest in the class? Sorry it's a lot of questions I'm just really confused on this area
What should I do during the summer of my junior year of high school? #Fall24
I want to do something related to engineering but I haven't quite ironed down anything specific. For the past few years, all my jobs have been related to teaching children or tutoring so I'm worried those won't be useful when it's time for me to apply to colleges. #Fall24

Should I be worried about honors algebra 2 and honors Spanish 2?
I’m a freshman in highschool, and have been for almost a month and a half now. The opportunity to switch to all honors classes + AP human geography has been presented to me and I am confident about most of my classes except for honors Algebra 2 and honors Spanish 2. I am not struggling at all in these classes, and I have a high A (96+) in both of them. My counselor said it was the same curriculum but I am still so afraid! I fear that I would be biting off more than I can chew if I take ALL honors + an AP class. I’m in regular classes right now (regular Algebra 2, regular Spanish, regular English, etc…) and It’s all very easy for me. Despite it being the same curriculum, would everything be more intense? Are the teachers less lax in these classes? Would I be bombarded with work from the switch? I can make a decision by the end of this week (end of marking period 1) And I will likely choose honors. But what’s the point of taking classes that look good if I just struggle and fail them? I have very good grades right now. Mostly ease in all my classes. Lowest grade is a 96 while my highest is a 100. Would that change if I go into harder classes? What am I putting myself into? What should I expect from taking these honors classes, and more specifically honors algebra 2 and honors Spanish 2.
Is Honors Physics as hard as APES?
I'm a junior in high school and I'm currently in APES (AP environmental science) but so far I'm not really getting anything and the workload is stressing me out. I'm in 3 other APs (AP Chinese, AP world, AP lang) that I value more than any AP science course I could take. I'm probably not going to do anything science-related as a career and I've never really been passionate/good at science. Last year I nearly failed Honors chem, but I think that's because I wasn't willing to put any effort in. I dropped honors and switched to on-level which I found insanely easy and relaxed, even fun at times! It also helped me focus on the subjects I genuinely cared about and found interest in, like APUSH. I don't want to breeze through high school and I know junior year is supposed to be hard, so part of me wants to stay in APES but part of me knows I can't do it. Oh and I should add that I'm in on-level precalc right now, and took on level algebra 2 last year. I'm good at on-level math and was good at honors geometry in freshman year but idk if my on-level skills would translate to honors physics. Anyways my question is whether Honors physics would be less rigorous but still challenging enough. I know APES and physics aren't really comparable subjects but whatevs. please help I am stressing a LOT and I'm kind of upset because I really really REALLY wanted to like APES.
What dual enrollment classes should I take if I’m wanting to be a cardiologist?
I am a sophomore and this past summer I took general psychology and rn I’m taking art appreciation. I’m in advanced classes rn but next school year they’ll switch to AP classes. My biggest goal is to graduate with an associates degree before graduating high school. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to but as long as I can get as much as the classes I need in high school, that’ll be great. Thanks!
