Paying for College

How to pick your classes ?

I want your advice on how to pick classes.

Which one should I avoid?

Are there any lessons or classes that are beneficial for you?

What classes can you use in future jobs?

Should I avoid 2-4 hour lectures?

As a freshman, I found it better to apply for AP(advanced placement)/Honors classes since they bring up your GPA. But when having AP classes you can earn college credit and build up your portfolio and if college is something you want to do something you enter as a sophomore instead of a freshman. Depending on what you want to do later on take classes based on that. My passion is the police department so I am taking a Law Enforcement class. I would avoid classes that you know you can't handle.
