[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My FCPS senior took 6 exams this year (Lit, Bio, BC, Gov, Micro and Macro). All 5s and 4s. Did not do any studying outside of classes. Her school prepared her well (same thing in past years - took World in 10th grade and APush, Lang, Chem and AB as a junior).[/quote]

Just checking "did not do any studying outside of classes" - do you mean the kid did zero revision? If that is the case, she would have likely got all 5's if she'd put some effort into it, even just the week before exams. It would have been worth it.[/quote]

Not my kid but I told my senior last year not to study for APs.  She was already in at college and there is basically no difference for credit or placement in a 4 or 5.  She killed herself studying junior year so I really didn’t want that to happen again.  [/quote]

Yes I understand that. My DS worked his ass off in 11th grade and got all his needed 5's then he had a place in college sorted out in October, so I told him he didn't actually have to take a single AP exam this year (12th) and he so didn't. I just think if you're going to the effort to take the exam, you want a 5.[/quote]
That’s silly. If you’re already into college, and the college gives credit for a 3, why isn’t it worth taking the exam for a 3?[/quote]
