[quote=Anonymous]"I disagree because, at least at our school, honors and AP classes receive the same weight when calculating GPA. So, yes, AP is perceived as higher but statistically the distinction between honors and AP is "meaningless." At application time your DC's school's councilor will send a description of the two types of courses to each college. You need to contact your DC's councilor ASAP and see if you are correct or not. At our school, they had the same weighting but the descriptions indicated that AP classes were much more rigorous. The review of a college application at schools that are even marginally selective is much more than comparing weighted GPAs.[/quote]
