[quote=Anonymous]Objectively I think it's hard to disagree AAP is more rigorous and more accelerated. But that doesn't make it "superior." Just like not everyone is college material, not everyone belongs in AAP. The controversy around AAP is rooted in efforts by people whose high-achieving kids are on the bubble for inclusion in the program and so therefore contort themselves for admission. Then the kids get in and struggle, diluting the program's original intent. These people can't accept that their bright kids would be just fine in Gen Ed where they would excel -- instead they feel like they're being denied something.[/quote]
