[quote=Anonymous]" I wish they would offer a dual enrollment program with UMD rather than Montgomery College. I've taken a few classes at Montgomery College. I wasn't impressed. The offer of UMD credit seems like it could attract more top students." Which came first the chicken or the egg? Just like AP classes get easier every year so that more kids can be successful in them and pay AP more money, dual enrollment classes are all about being easy enough so that they attract as many students as possible. It's not the name of the college, it is that there just aren't enough HS students that can complete college level classes in HS, so the classes get easier. Think of it this way. In MCPS you have 7 classes at a time in HS. In college you take 5 or many times 4. That alone means the HS versions have to be easier and should NOT count for transfer credit.[/quote]
