I took AP Lang, and it was a good class, I learned A LOT, but it was a lot of work, thought not exactly a hard class. I think it really depends on the teacher, though, for AP Lang, because there isn't specific course material like there is for the other classes. There are times when I had a lot of homework in that class, and times when I had none at all. A lot of concepts I learned in AP Land have been really helpful, even outside of that class, and for the AP test. I haven't taken AP Bio, but I heard it's hard, and requires a lot of studying on your own, and can be time-consuming. Come of the concepts seem difficult to grasp. In my school, everyone dreads APUSH because the teacher is really hardcore, but everyone said the AP test wasn't too bad. That class requires a lot of memorization, though. Just as a note, I haven't taken APUSH or AP Bio, but I have a bunch of friends who have and they tell me what those classes are like.
The only other class I took from was Algebra 2. That was the worst I ever did in a math class, but I think that was because I took it freshman year, the transition into the high school. I didn't really grasp the concept of studying for every test or quiz, because I hadn't done that in middle school. Now that I look back, it really wasn't that bad.
Anyway, your classes are hard, but it seems like a good balance between easier and harder classes. Don't stress out, but you will have a lot of work. You'll find a way to deal with the workload, everyone who takes hard AP classes does.
