[quote=Anonymous]DS is at a HYP. His HS didn’t have AP classes- they called them Advanced Subjects- some of the teachers taught to the AP tests and others didn’t. He was in every AS class available but only took 3 of the tests, AP World, APush and Calc BC. Scored 5s. DS viewed his admissions file and all it said about his academics was “highest rigor and test scores.” I think this board looks to the minutia to explain why a student was deferred or rejected, but at these top 10 schools the explanation is more tailored to what the school is looking for and not your kid. No admissions officer is going to think that a kid who got a few 5s on AP tests isn’t capable of doing college work because they didn’t submit every score (or didn’t take the exam). BTW- DS was accepted to two 10 schools and rejected by two. [/quote]
