[quote=Anonymous]Does no one even consider the idea that kids take APs because they are genuinely interested in the subject and in a challenging class? There's this assumption floating around on this thread that academic high achievers are doing it solely to impress other people and gain admission to "top" colleges. Is that why the athletic kids are playing sports? Or maybe it's because they love the game and they love using their skills? Why doesn't anyone consider that as a motivation for the academically inclined? Of course there are kids in APs only because they feel they have to be, but that's not everyone. And if your issue is "pressure" from the school or the community or whatever, well, have the courage of your convictions and resist if you really think it's not right for your kid.[/quote]
