[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of kids don't necessarily want to take all APs, but feel like they have to take them b/c "everyone else is doing it." [/quote] Honest conversations. Maybe a college advisor meeting. Many teenagers don’t know a lot about the college landscape; they don’t realize how competitive it is. They feed off each other and get misinformation. They also don’t realize that distinguishing yourself outside of the classroom is a good use of time (and it can be in fairly simple ways). They might also like hearing that there are so many terrific schools that don’t require all this BS. I tell this to my kid all the time and it’s helped them have a more flexible outlook. [/quote]
