[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is getting out of hand. Why are parents encouraging/forcing their kids to begin taking AP classes freshman and sophomore year? We've had [b]two sitters from our local HS who ended up with full rides at top colleges, and they didn't take APs the way other kids are being pressured to[/b]. One explained to me that colleges only accept a certain amount of AP credits, so you look foolish taking more than that. She paced it out, which meant not starting freshman year. She's a sophomore in college now. So, what's your motivation for pushing your kids? There seems to be a frenzy about this at our local school. I don't get it.[/quote] Its not that i dont believe you OP. But thats REALLY hard to believe. No Ap but full rides to top colleges??? Ive been thru college application process multiple times but cant figure out how your sitters were able to do this. [/quote]
