[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Doesn't that leave very few slots for anything ther than "core" courses? [/quote] Same number of classes in the end. Seems like it would encourage students to add more challenging courses, though, because they wouldn't have to deal with 6 APs at once, only 3 per semester. [/quote] Pretty sure that you can count on one hand the # of DCPS kids who take 6 AP classes in one year. Even the highest achievers struggle with 5. Put AP chem or physics in there and you have your hands completely full. And no, this schedule would encourage my child to take fewer AP classes, because for any that occurred first semester, she would be at a huge disadvantage on a national test on which most kids were completing the class right before taking the test, whereas she would have had 5 months to forget the material.[/quote]
