Don't take ap environmental it can be held off till Senior year if you are really ambitious, not that it is hard, but you won't be able to manage it most likely.

To be honest, AP Chem is one of the most hardest AP classes you can take (I heard), I am only in Honors Chem, and that is hard enough. Can't you take a summer course over the summer for Chemistry? That would be much more helpful, and many schools don't let you take AP Chem unless you have already taken Regular/Honors Chem, but if your school lets you take AP Chem right away, it is going to be extremely difficult. So I do think it is a bad idea.. but no one can stop you.

And the work all depends on the teacher, by the way.

AP Environmental Science i have also not taken but of course, it is AP and it is hard, but I have generally heard it is one of the easier AP sciences (much easier compared to AP Chem/AP Bio), but of course, that all depends on the teacher.

AP Biology I am currently taking, it is tons of memorization, so you would generally have a lot of work in there, and I have also heard that is pretty hard (and again, some say it wasn't that hard, because they either studied TONS, or they were lucky and they had a generous and lenient teacher.)

Don't do AP Chem until you've done Honors. Most of the people don't get it in my class although they took Honors last year. There were six sophomores at the beginning of the year that never took Chem before and all of them are gone except one so... and AP Chem is one of those classes you just have to be good at pretty much =/

if you've never taken chem before dont take the ap class because chemistry is one of those classes where you have to figure out how long it takes you to process stuff. ap bio is easier in the sense that if you study and read the book, you WILL understand it. ap bio is mostly memorization. i took it last year and it was good, i got lazy and didnt study as much so i got a B

There is a HUGE gap in your schedule: you have to join 'over-achievers anonymous'. you took Bio already......... why take it again?
