[quote=Anonymous]14:36 here. My MCPS kid will have 10 APs by graduation. DC has not taken AP World (will this year) yet but my private school child took the non AP version of World and by its very nature it's a class that's a mile wide and an inch deep. I guess it really depends on the kid. Mine is unstressed by the AP tests and MCPS, for better or worse, does seem to do a good job of test prep. I personally think the grades in the class are far more important than the test score in terms of college admissions. If you've got 5s that is probably a plus for college, but getting an A in the class but a 3 on the test is probably not a deal breaker, especially since the scores aren't always submitted as part of the application. And of course the scores for APs taken senior year have no impact on college admissions.[/quote]
