[quote=Anonymous]The problem in some schools is that the options are either regular, on-level classes (which, depending on the school, may actually be taught at a remedial level) or AP classes. In those cases, a motivated kid is going to end up taking a whole lot of AP classes. My high schooler has taken 9 so far, with 4 more this year. He is doing great, and is busy but not particularly stressed. FWIW, although some of these classes are time-consuming (chem, physics, US hist, a few of the foreign language courses among them), none of them are truly college-level courses. We have found that ALL of them (including the ones that some PPs deride as not-really-AP) are useful preparation for kids who want a challenge in high school. [/quote]
