[quote=Anonymous]My senior is in AP Calc AB and his class is a mix of kids who took "regular" math starting with Algebra 1 in 8th grade, kids who dropped down from honors to regular during PreCalc last year, and kids like him (B+ in honors pre-calc because he never studied, will probably never take math again). It may seem like "everyone" takes all honors/AP everything all the time and that's the only track, but it simply isn't true. Taking regular math will not prevent a kid from taking an AP Calculus class. Taking some non-honors classes does not ruin a college application (especially if the non-honors class is the right fit for the student). My kid has ADHD, has taken a mix of regular, honors and APs, and is applying to college with a 3.7/4.0 (weighted) and a high ACT score. He's not going to get into an Ivy league school, obviously, but the situation is not dire for him. [/quote]
