[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I suspect the private school decision to drop APs is a result of pressure from colleges, not a to lessen the pressure on current students. Colleges lose a lot of tuition money when kids come in with a semester or a year of credits. Either the colleges stop accepting AP tests as credit or the schools stop encouraging their kids from taking the courses or taking the tests. It just reeks of collusion between institutions that want your money (colleges) and schools that have populations that are both wealthy and willing to give up a potential windfall of cash because the curriculum is (in their opinion that I do not share) “rote.” [/quote] Colleges can and have changed their treatment of AP credits. Many schools only use them for placement and not credits. https://www.cnbc.com/2017/05/04/study-up-scoring-ap-credit-for-college-isnt-easy.html[/quote]
