[quote=Anonymous]My eldest is a freshman in college.  He took seven APs and received 34 credits from his college.  That made him a sophomore on paper.   He did not take all that they offered and is taking Calc II and Physics at school as they pertain to his intended engineering classes and he wanted to make sure his foundation was strong as they emphasize different things in their classes.  Even so, as an engineer, it looks like with careful planning he will be able to graduate a semester early.  Saving us $20+k.  He was a decent student, but not stellar in his HS, probably  around 80th percentile ( based on a number of factors and educated guesses) He is attending a top ten program in his major and finds himself extremely well prepared for it.  The fact that there were so many high achieving students in his HS has made his transition to college easier.  He attended one of the five schools most frequently mentioned as "top" in the county?

He is finding out that the rigor of his HS math and science classes were far above most of his classmates.
