I agree with you though. Math is fun, and physics looks fun.
I wish I could have taken AP courses but my school liked to confuse weird with stupid. Just would have been really nice to get college credit. At least I can take summer classes to get general education stuff out of the way, freeing up time for more electives and summer internships in the following years.
A lot of people think AP means the course is very difficult and only for intelligent people. They usually only require you to think more independently and do a bit more homework. There were a lot of average people in those classes which is why I never understood why I wasn't allowed to take them. My lowest grade in junior/senior year was a 95. =/ In my Calculus class I consistently had better grades than most of the juniors who were ahead a year in math. And unlike other classes a grade in a math class is a pretty good indication of your ability and comprehension of the material.
Holy crap sorry for the ranting. I'm going to be majoring in electrical engineering.
