[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This flows from colleges down. This is not something DC privates have created to be more elite. In fact the country’s leading privates have already done this (the Andover poster has pointed that out on many occasions). Many colleges do not hold APs in high regard. As others have pointed out, colleges are looking to see that a student is taking the most challenging courses their school offers and frankly those aren’t APs at independent schools. There is not conspiracy, it’s just eliminating what is unnecessary to make room to offer something greater.[/quote] So if I’m a kid from a small town high school who has been led to believe I should challenge myself by taking as many APs as I can, what am I to think now that apparently colleges don’t hold APs in high regard and private schools are making backroom deals with colleges to ensure it doesn’t matter if their privileged kids take APs or not?[/quote]
