Most APs are year long, but some are not. SAAS has a one semester version of AP PreCalc (also a full year version), and then AP Language and Comp., AP Gov, AP Macro, AP Micro, and APES are all one semester courses.

STA and NCS do not offer AP english, no AP History, no AP government, etc…
Just AP Science and language which most kids take in 11th. No more language to take in senior year.

I will say SAAS is all-in for AP exams. All graduates take AP Bio, World History, US History, Lang, Lit, and one of the Calculus tests, assuming the boy started in 9th grade.

OP, have you asked the school counselor what the gunner seniors take at your school? Just take those classes.

Curious what other schools offer for senior fall?

Well, that's a problem. About six or seven years ago, when T3 privates in DC decided to opt out of giving AP courses, the publics did not. Today the kids in publics who have taken 12-13 AP courses are getting into T25s and the graduates of the of the top privates are having difficulty. This was obvious at the time and many commented on it but the mangement types at the top privates thought they were smarter and better and could "fix" the system. What they did was hurt their own students.

Why do parents put up with these policies? One thing after the other and they are just hurting their students.

Why are you so gullible? You shouldn’t believe everything you read on DCUM.
The Big 3 private schools are not having any problems sending students to T25 colleges and universities. In fact, most of these schools are sending at least half of their students to T25s.
Use Google to determine the facts.

No they are not sending that many. Many kids are getting left with not great options. People like you who it worked out well for keep clammering on about how great it is but I am talking to actual parents and students that are getting shut out.

Yes, they are sending that many. Sorry your child isn’t enjoying the same benefits. It sounds like your unhooked child also has subpar grades, test scores and ECs. The Big 3 can’t work miracles [shrug]. Better luck during transfer season.

I'm not PP - but do you hear yourself? Just awful.

You are a total dimwit - I am talking about SENIOR parents and students this year which is not us.

And you sound like the parent of a mediocre student who will be lucky to attend a T200 college. Good luck with that, dear!
