[quote=Anonymous]My kids both took AP Micro and Macroeconomics. As an economist, I'll say they got a real intro to basic economics - which has helped them both in college, and is relevant in the real world. One took forensics and APES and liked both. The first was just plain interesting, the latter is again real world relevant (agriculture, energy, climate/weather) not covered elsewhere in HS. AP Human Geo echoes some of the same subject matter - my DD took same year as APES and said both classes much easier due to this. Both took AP Calculus - one in AB, the other BC. Calculus is just plain hard, so helped them gain excellent study habits although courses were a lot of work. Will echo PPs who said classes all depend on the teacher. Kids report some classes are boring, hard to follow, and/or too easy, depending on the teacher's familiarity and commitment to the course.[/quote]
