[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD in TJ has taken Artificial Intelligence 1 & 2 which was AV courses. Do they get counted as AP level courses or have any additional weight in college admissions, or no. [/quote]
Unfortunately, these courses won't be a differentiator because all the TJ students interested in computer science would be exhausting AI/ML/CV/Mobile/Web courses. These are good courses, but they're not really in-depth due to their semester length; they introduce concepts and quickly move on to the next. Of course, students would gain exposure to emerging technologies, which is an advantage to expand their horizons. The TJ computer science staff appears to have put a lot of thought into designing these courses, notably picking a different programming language for each, so students would be exposed to a broad range of programming and underlying platform skills. For a high schooler, going through these courses is a unique experience. However, from a college admissions perspective, they are not AP or DE courses and thus not a significant differentiator.[/quote]
