[quote=Anonymous]Each college makes their own decisions whether they want to accept AP courses as credit for graduation or not. The truth is, most selective institutions will NOT do that, so you're not saving money. Taking APs in high school: 1. Improves odds of being accepted to selective institutions, since colleges have soft quotas for each high school, and students need to show they've challenged themselves with the hardest coursework available to them. 2. Allows students to skip some of the introductory courses that are usually required by colleges, which means students can take more interesting classes and get further ahead in their studies, without adding (and paying for) classes beyond the required number of courses for graduation. Again, this depends on the institution and major. [/quote]
