[quote=Anonymous]S/O from the YY/IB thread, an article was posted about Dartmouth's decision to stop accepting IB and AP test scores for advance placement. In the middle of the article is this quote: "But Deborah Davis said the company's research indicates that most students who enroll in small, highly selective colleges use AP scores for placement, not to graduate early. [u][b]But with the average time to complete a bachelor's degree increasing to six years at most colleges[/b][/u], she anticipates that AP exam scores will increasingly be used to provide credits." What the...???? Have I been TOTALLY asleep, or when did it start becoming normal/frequent to take 6 years to finish college??? And if that is true, what has changed, why is it taking 2 whole years longer?? [/quote]
