Which APs most important for "most rigorous"

[Anonymous]

How about taking the exams and reporting the scores? Did your successful kids take all the exams? Did the report only 5s or 4s as well?

It is school dependent. It matters what is taken in context of the hardest path offered.
Over 10% of our private take ALL of these :
AP physics 1, AP physics C,
AP Chem, calcBC(1/3 of the graduates take it 11 or 12th) APpush(half the school)
AP English lang and lit (over half the school does these two) AP foreign language
Plus 2-3 random ones such as bio, econ or gov

About half of them get in to ivies unhooked and the others usually end up at T20ish inless they have a lot of Bs and are not in the top 1/3 GPA -wise
