+1. Top schools are looking to see if your kid can handle the rigor of college -two free periods says no[/quote]
said nobody ever [/quote]

There is advice against free periods from college counselors and admissions officers.  Take an elective.[/quote]

My child's school requires a free period, for everyone. I don't believe that anyone has given this blanket advice.[/quote]

Then your school would have that in their profile that they send.  That's irrelevant here.  If your school DOESN'T require a free period, having 2 will impact rigor.[/quote]
This. Our school requires a free as well (in 9th, it’s a mandatory study hall). The school profile explains that there are 8 class periods and students can take a maximum of 7 courses and a minimum of 6. My kid had two free periods for first semester 10th grade, for example, but will only have one free for the rest of 10th, 11th, and 12th. [/quote]
