[quote=Anonymous]The only real benefit of taking the AP tests is to earn credit for courses at college. The problem is that many colleges now no longer award credit for these courses. Many colleges and universities have claimed the APs are not equivalent to the rigor of most college courses. Of course, colleges also have a financial investment in requiring students to take as many credits as possible. For a few years, some colleges were using AP scores in lieu of standardized test scores. If you're DC wants to take the test, I don't see any reason why they shouldn't. Just know there are fees involved and, depending on the number of AP tests they take, it can become expensive.[/quote]
