Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, I know this answer may seem a little vague, but it really depends on your highschool or the college you're going to.

Elective courses can include courses like foreign languages, music, business, and etc. These classes are mainly not-core-learning courses like math, english, science, etc... Note that there are graduation requirements for the number of elective courses you have to take. Depending on how your school has set up the elective classes, you can also take higher level courses from the beginning.
