[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems like a lot of kids take a bunch of AP classes, but then do the regular four years of college. I know the AP classes can better your chances of getting into a good college, but does anyone have experience with a kid also using them to reduce the amount of time spent in college? Or a kid who took fewer credits per semester? If they did either of those things, did they feel they missed any of the college experience?[/quote] Yes, my kid will graduate Cornell in 3 years (from the College of Arts and Sciences) due to combination of several good AP scores and taking community college classes during HS. She is receiving credits in math, chemistry, English and a foreign language. Will save us $80k. She is probably heading to medical school and shaving a year off the "college experience" does not bother her at all. [/quote]
