[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I applied to college 20 years ago, this was already true.[/quote] Really? Dartmouth announced their policy less than 2 years ago and it was "news?"[/quote] Well, then Dartmouth is unusual. Most of the Ivies and elite SLACs already did this. Getting credit is rare at such schools.[/quote] Interesting that some felt Dartmouth's decision to end AP credit was based on misinformation concerning peer institutions: A proponent of the change stated: “We are not out of step with other institutions with a deep commitment to undergraduate education in doing this. For example, Brown, Amherst, Williams, Harvard, Princeton and UPenn do not allow AP credits. Cornell and Yale do, but in reality, I’ve been told, it’s very difficult to get credit for those students.” But it turned out that most of that statement was not true: http://www.dartblog.com/data/2013/01/010624.php[/quote]
