How many APs did your sophomore take?

[Anonymous]

Trying to figure out schedules for next year. They’re my oldest so still new to navigating HS.

How many AP courses did your student take as a sophomore. They have 1 as a freshman. Don’t want to overload them next year but also want them to be challenged.

Older took 1 and second will take two next year. Have they fulfilled tech requirement? AP CSP would be a light second AP. APUSH is pretty busy.

AP Gov and AP CSP as sophomore

Thank you, they were thinking of AP Computer science, is that what you meant? They’re in Apush now at their school it’s for 9th graders so AP government would be next year.

2 this year as a sophomore.
6 next year (which I think is crazy but it's his life)

3.

APUSH as a Freshman (got a 5 so it went well).

Now AP CompSciA, APGov, and AP Physics.

Planning on 5-6 next year. We'd prefer 5 but we'll see.

Is your kid in college now?

My oldest did three sophomore year (AP Spanish. Apush and AP comp sci principals).

My next one is also doing three (apush, AP java, and AP physics). He did two last year.

I think it totally depends on the kid and which classes.

There’s no right or wrong. It depends on academic strengths and college goals. 2 of mine took just 1 and the other took 2. They focused on APs in areas of strength or interest rather than trying to cover every core subject. 2 went on to UMD College Park and my youngest is a junior so I don’t know where he’ll land. None of mine had the goal of any Ivy or T20. At our HS, it seems to be the norm to load up so my kids were outliers. Still they landed where they wanted to be. We are very pleased with UMD.
