Grammar
two verbs with the same object
How do you punctuate two or verbs that relate to the same object in a sentence?
For example, "That’s why I laugh at my friends who want to go to the same schools I do yet take every AP course offered."
For example, "That’s why I laugh at my friends who want to go to the same schools I do yet take every AP course offered."

The "who" actually functions as the subject there, which together form the object of your laugh. Like, I saw [the man who robbed the bank]. But anyway, I think you're fine without any punctuation at all.
