[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Private schools can and do still indicate high-level/added rigor courses on the transcript, and grades should be weighted accordingly. My understanding is that dropping AP is more about [b]choosing not to teach specifically to a test[/b]. Wish there were a private hs counselor in here, they could explain it better than I. [/quote] That was the line they gave parents, but the truth is that there are many ways to teach an AP class (as evidenced by the kids who self teach and take tests). Some schools offer 15 different versions of AP Language and Literature, for example. Either they didn't really understand what the college board required in a curriculum, they didn't know how to write a curriculum, or they were not being fully transparent.[/quote]
