[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AP classes count for credit at most colleges. For example, 5s in 10 APs will get DC credit for 10 classes, which is usually the freshman course load.[/quote]

Thanks. 5s? Is that an A in the new grading system?[/quote]

You had us until this, OP. If you googled AP class 5, you'd have your answer. It is not believable you'd know enough:

- to find this website to post on here +

- to ask about how kids are shaving time off their college years +

- write in English, showing you write and understand the language +

- already have a child enrolled in FCPS +

- know there are some new grading policies...

And yet you are incapable of Googling your question for an answer? Got it.

What is wrong with you? Not everyone knows everything, and everyone has a point where they tire or searching, and just ask their question. [/quote]

Absolutely...but the person who asks about AP track success stories - the title of the post - knows what AP classes are.[/quote]

It is easy to know what AP classes are. If you comprehend OP's original post, there are multiple questions, way BEYOND knowing just what AP classes are. Also note, OP is looking for STORIES- which means events and decisions that happen over time so that they can help their DD prepare at her start of high school-- which is the best time to be looking at AP classes.

I have often heard parents, colleagues and neighbors talk about [b]how their kids were able to shave off year or more in college. [/b]
[b]How does that happen?[/b] [b]Is the kid exceptionally intelligent?[/b] O[b]r is it an outcome of proper planning on what courses to take and when.[/b]
I would love to hear some success stories and may be get some [b]ideas of what courses to take and when[/b]. DD is starting high school this year at Lake Braddock.

Keep reading. Her orig post was believable. This is what made the whole thing suspect: “Thanks. 5s? Is that an A in the new grading system?”

She knew what APs were, knew they can count for college credit and played dumb when someone mentioned getting a 5 on the exam. No- not believable.
