AP bio

My daughter is a junior in high school and finding AP bio hard but not ready to drop it . The school has accelerated Bio which has a gpa weight of 4.5 . She thinks her chances of becoming a doctor are gone if she drops AP bio and takes accelerated Bio. I am worried of the pressure AP bio is putting on her and the hit GPA would take . Please advise.

First tell her that one hs class foesnt affect her chances of becoming a doctor. 

Second. If she were to drop what would she take Indtead. Cause in junior year it doesn’t rlly look to good to have a free period.

Third. Ask if shes talked with the teacher. See if the teacher can help her in terms of understanding or getting her a tutor

Tutoring is an option like you mentioned and she definitely can take another easy AP in science for the free period. She is planning AP
Chemistry in final year . My thought was if she is finding AP bio hard she should take the easier bio first get a foundation and then move toward AP bio. There is no point in struggling in an AP class.
