[quote=Anonymous]Not all schools require the non-AP science before the AP. At my kids' school you must do that for bio and chem but can go straight to AP Physics. My DS is a junior. He'll likely end up with 8 and didn't take the heaviest schedule, which would have included AP World History in 9th grade. And, is doing 3 APs junior year while plenty of friends are doing 4. I'd say 1 in 9th, 1-2 in 10th, 4 each in 11th-12th is not uncommon for the top tier of students at his school. 10th - AP Government 11th - AP Language, AP USHistory, AP Calc AB (could have taken AP Physics but opted for regular) 12th - AP Calc BC, AP Stats, AP Physics + probably an AP elective, Psychology or Economics. Skipping the 2nd AP English class since his interests are in math[/quote]
