Don't rely on what someone tells you to take in this forum. Choose your top 5 schools, check the pre-requisits for each of their architectural degrees and compare to get an idea of what you should take in high school. Every school is different so there is no one answer that will be correct. Good Luck.

Most colleges are looking for courses that will be significant building blocks towards your degree in which you go after, in this case architecture. If that is the case those courses that give you college credits are major bonuses. Any AP classes or honors courses offered at your school are a major plus. Architecture wise I would start by looking at AP math courses, possibly some AP history courses that focus on landmarks and styles, and then I would look into enrolling into Auto CAD classes and structure art courses. All these will look good on any transcript.

definitely take the hardest math classes you can manage. Plus as much physics as is available. Every college wants you to have 4 years of math, 4 years of english, at least 3 years of social studies, 2 or more years of a foreign language, and at least 3 years (preferably 4 years or more) of science. All of these classes should be the highest level that you are capable of handling.

Most high school offer college prep classes, I would take some of those! And talk to your school counselor, they can help you take the appropriate classes!
