[quote=Anonymous]Mine did AP Gov in 9th grade. It was not a hard class and he got a 5 on the test. Even if it's college level it's not college pace because you cover in a year what would be covered in a semester in college. Honestly I think people are getting confused about rigor and APs. Colleges are looking for rigor in CORE classes. They may not even really look at things like art history, unless the student is on an overall arts track. Many selective schools calculate a GPA that includes only core classes and leave out electives, whether AP or not. So filling a schedule with a bunch of random APs is not going to be much of a boost and you may want to encourage your kid to focus on the core classes rather than get distracted by extraneous APs.[/quote]
