[quote=Anonymous]I, too, went to a high school without APs but my "honors" courses were as difficult or more difficult than APs (though different-- much more reading; fewer multiple choice questions). However, the want things have evolved in MCPS is that the 'honors' courses aren't challenging at all. They are more like MS courses. My dd took two APs last year, and the rest honors, and the only classes where she had significant work/studying was in the AP classes. So we have her taking APs not for the college credit, but because otherwise she wouldn't learn much or be challenged at all.[/quote]
