[quote=Anonymous]We did not find that actually taking the test made a difference for admissions purposes. For some classes my kids did not take the exam. Reasons included quality of instruction and the need to self study bc material was not being covered in class, exhaustion at end of the year etc. For some they did and it was nice to earn some credits. But for admissions purposes we found that strong grades - straight As in all of their classes including the APs, and high ACTs plus all of the usual (great LORs and ECs and essays) meant they did well in admissions to a top 15 and a top 20 ( reported all AP and ACT scores but agree only report 4s and 5s). I’m sure others will disagree but this was our experience past two cycles[/quote]
