idk about that. i dont think any job cares or is impressed about irrelevant courses. if you apply for something like software engineering nobody is going to look at your resume and say "oh yeah i see you took biology. im impressed"

AP courses have the potential to let you skip mandatory credits
A friend of mine skipped two history classes at IIT with an APUSH credit.

yeah well I'm just teaching it because I want to graduate with the highest honors. The university I'm going to has different conditions to apply
I need all of them if I'm going into software engineering(which I am)

The fridge jokes really froze up quickly.

Maybe you guys need to let it go.

My mom was worried when I decided to take trig, physics, and precalculus at the same time. PreCalc is tough in terms of homework load, but still manageable.

I took zero AP classes during my highschool career and I still only finished with a 3.5 B)

Harvard College Yale here I come.

Can you really do precalc without trig knowledge? I feel like you'd be missing a lot of tools

My school divides them to devote extra time to each subject. Normally, trig is included in a precalc class, but the extra one-semester trig class forks it out of precalc so that the precalc class can deal with other things.

Both classes work together and keep each other up to date, and taking both can get me up to five hours of college credit.

Neat. I had to take them in order. I don't feel like I learned much in trig. At least my Calc class is much faster.

Trig is fairly simple for me cause I did some of it in geometry and algebra 2.

But precalc is primarily focusing on functions for at least the first couple of months. We aren't even using trig ratios at all because it's all in the other class.

Something that requires an amazing looking resume perhaps?
