[quote=Anonymous]Interested in hearing people’s thoughts on this. My kids high school gives a GPA bump of +1 for AP classes, +0.5 bump for Honors classes, and no bump for dual enrollment even in advanced classes equivalent to AP like Calculus 1 & 2, calculus based Physics or post AP classes like Multivariable, Linear Algebra, Organic Chemistry. School doesn’t rank so it doesn’t really matter unless aiming for valedictorian, which he doesn’t care about. Dual enrollment works better for him, because it has guaranteed in state transfer, and there are more interesting classes to take. For all dual enrollment class he plans to take the equivalent AP exam, eg AP calculus BC. Is taking the dual enrollment classes with no GPA weight going to hurt for college applications? Is the answer different for top tier like HYPSM? He might apply to a few of them in addition to safeties and matches.[/quote]
