[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids were considered sophomores after their first semester of college, due to the AP credits they earned in high school. This enabled them to have an advantage when it came time to register for classes (because their state school let kids register based on the number of credit hours they had earned), and it would have enabled them to graduate a semester early. Instead, they both chose to earn a double major, and graduated after the normal eight semesters of college. Were AP exams worth it? Absolutely! And neither of my kids were stressed out over the AP tests. They knew the material inside and out because of the great teachers that they had at their non-W, non-magnet MCPS school. [/quote] My kid graduate double major in 4 years with no AP’s because they weren’t offered at private. Most kids double major or minor and get done on time since many of the classes are the same. So unless you are getting done a full year earlier, the AP saved you no money starting off as a “college sophmore” [/quote]
