[quote=Anonymous]Look- it really depends on what school your kid goes to. I know DCUM really likes to focus on the elite and Ivy schools, but most kids don't go there,

My kid will be a freshman at a top 50 private. It was his first choice and he picked it for a specific interest.

He will get credit for all of his AP exams in some manner - some will just give him credit (but without taking the place of something else)  some excuse him from requirements, and some just place him in a higher level of the class.  He got credit for APES, for example, and his Lang and Lit scores excused him from English all together.   I believe he also got credit for Comp. politics, which someone else ridiculed above.

His increased credits mean he has enough credits to be a sophomore so he gets to register early and his scores place him in an honors program at the school that excuse him from other requirements.

For him, its been a good system.  I agree it doesn't matter at a lot of schools, and it's certainly nothing to worry about this year.

I also have a high school kid that is planning to take no APs, and he will be just fine as well and likely, APs won't be as much of an issue as all testing seems to be on the way out at this point.[/quote]
