[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are no grades mentioned in terms of grades for these classes and grades for the exams

the list is fairly pointless without them
also if she got C grades in the honors social sciences then that won't help but if she got A's then obviously that's a bonus

This feels like I'm stating the obvious here. [/quote]

She's a junior, so she has only received 1 AP score so far... it was a 5. She is expecting more 5's this July. She has all As so far except for 1 A- (and might get another A- in AP Lang this year -- she's got a 91.8% right now).

But I'm really just curious about "the number." Would you say 8 APs or 10?[/quote]

There is no one number. My graduating senior had 14 AP tests (a few were semester-long courses). That was "enough" for college admissions for this one particular kid, with their particular grades/scores/major, for the schools on their list. Would 12 have been enough? 10? 8? Probably, but no one can say, as that's not how admissions works.[/quote]

So.you would count my daughter as taking 8 AP classes? (I understand that there are lots of factors in admissions. I am truly just curious about what people say in terms of number.) You only count AP tests, not post AP courses, right?[/quote]
