[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid did all the fancy CS courses at TJ. However, we found that when you apply to colleges, most of them have their own way of teaching CS, with their own progression that they want students to follow, particularly with the highly ranked programs. You might get out of the intro course, but it's unlikely you'll be skipping to third year courses. If you do CS as part of an engineering degree rather than as an Arts and Sciences degree, they'll still make you do the math/physics/chem requirements, unless you can skip out of these with AP or dual enrollment courses. [/quote] You won’t get skipped over courses, but they sure will feel a lot easier than if you didn’t already have experience with the material. That’s literally the point of the post-APs at TJ - to make college easier.[/quote]
