Q&A: Do colleges like students who take college courses in early in high school?
Question by Misz.BLASIAN: Do colleges like students who take college courses in early in high teach?
I am a high teach sophomore. I will be a junior next year when I commence taking classes at a local college. I won’t attend that college, but I know the credits can roll over, but I don’t want to waste my time taking courses like ( Psychology, Economics, etc. ) if colleges don’t care in this area it. So…is it worth it?

There are some courses that all universities require, no matter where you go or what your degree will be, such as Speech, English, and some sort of math (I´m sure you know if you’re taking the liberal arts track or the science/engineering track - liberal arts majors have to take college algebra, engineers have to take calculus).
These are classes that can usually be very straightforwardly transferred, and they’ll let you get a head start on the REAL classes in your major once you officially start college. I would certainly recommend getting them out of the way as soon as possible.

They care in this area the harder ones, like AP Calc, BC Calc, AP Stats, AP Gov, AP Euro. They take that you took these harder courses into consideration when they look at your GPA. They also look to see if you challenged yourself. But, if it is just a discretionary that gets credit like psychology or sociology, they won’t really care.
