Electives: too many to chose from

The Light · 06/15/08, 04:41 PM

Next year I start highschool. I have grade 9 elective chosen already [concert band and show choir] but what do you think the best elective is so I might try it in following years. Thanks.

Really? Wow sorry I actually find it hard I want Tech. Ed. I want Art. I want Music, and I want Acting. I want broadcasting. What to chose? Why can't it be like middle school?

I would choose some humanity and technology electives. Colleges love those. If you have women/gender studies, definitely take that ;D. I'd suggest having a well-rounded, liberal arts course through your high school years.

A foreign language is also advisable.

Spanish is probably the most useful, but I'm taking German myself.

Thats auto. cause I need 3 years of a langauge to graduate. Ex: Spanish 1, Spanish 2, Spanish 3.

haha white people electives.

We have maybe 5 different electives, counting all the PE and PE credit classes as one.

Lmao grade 9 electives. Until you get to University, you don't know the meaning of too many to choose from.

Where I come from, you have to take at least 3 semesters of Computer Applications in order to take Multimedia.
If they have a class like Multimedia, I'd look into seeing what is required into taking something like that. You get to work with all kinds of programs from what I've heard.

Spanish I-III.

Doooooooooooooo it.

Zoidberg! · 06/15/08, 10:34 PM

Crap, I have to go through this next year. Then again, college will be worse...

Anyway, take Spanish. It should prove useful.

...I doubt I'm going to be any help at all, but homeschooling has electives, so. D:

Just do stuff you like, as well as the ones that are required. Do something you're interested in, stuff that'll help you with whatever you do in college, etc. There's also probably stuff that college requires, so look into that stuff, too. But I guess don't try to do too, too much, or you'll get horribly overwelmed and that might end up meaning bad grades, which'll suck.

...AND DO SOMETHING MUSICAL, TOO. Like Orchestra! :D; */horribly attempt to get someone into an orchestra program* But, seriously, make sure you're doing a music elective, too. Learning how to play music can make you smarter; at least that's what it said the last time I checked...
