[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree that taking college courses can't hurt. But I don't believe this is necessary to get into even most selective colleges. AP and IB classes are taught at a college level. If a kid can get a 5 on several APs, that's enough to demonstrate capability at even the colleges that take 7% of applicants, in DC's experience. The thought of a world where kids have to take APs, tons of ECs to demonstrate "leadership", AND several courses at a nearby college scares, me, frankly! [/quote]Most kids who take college courses do so because they want more of a challenge and/or the high school has maxed out on courses of interest.[/quote]
