[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Taking AP *classes* helps with admissions because it shows rigor. Taking AP *tests* helps with credit/placement once matriculated. And a few schools are test-flexible, so you can submit AP scores instead of SAT/ACT. [/quote] Yes, but the point of the post is that merely taking AP classes- without also taking the exam and recording a good score- doesn’t show anything with respect to rigor. An AP class without an exam score is like a no-doc mortgage or a liar loan. Maybe you are doing college level work- but who really knows? To get an admissions bonus, students ought to be required to take the test and report scores.[/quote]
