[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What specific APs and DE courses make for a competitive application for admission to Computer Science major, especially for students from Northern Virginia high schools?[/quote] Not specific either to VT or to NoVA, but most E schools in the US want to see the rigorous APs, both STEM (examples: Calculus, Physics, Biology, Chemistry, etc) and non-STEM (examples: English, History, modern Foreign language, Government). It is a myth that E School applicants are usually weak in language or writing. The regular AP in CS is preferred over AP CS Principles. AP in Envi Sci is viewed as less rigorous than Physics or Chem or Bio. There is a laundry list of non-rigorous AP classes, mostly from the humanities. [/quote]
