[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is my feeling too. Take APs that colleges of your choice take. It make no sense to take AP in Computer Science, if you plan for that major. Also many technical colleges will require for their program one American History or Government, but not both. So why take both AP and suffer? You have to chose APs according to your plans, not according to somebody's else plan who thinks about business major at IVY.[/quote] Disagree. You should take classes that interest you and challenge you and not worry about college credit unless there is strong financial need to graduate in less than 4 years. My kid took 10 APs and did not suffer - they were good challenging classes. DC happened to get college credit for all of them but also cosidered colleges that would not have taken all the credits. It really wasn't a factor as DC does not plan to graduate early. It did allow DC to take upper level classes as a freshman, which was a plus.[/quote]
