[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone has all APs, so stand out by not having all APs and doing something else?

That might be fine for the selective schools, but like a pp said, for the most selectives, you should probably aim for the APs and the interesting experience.[/quote]

You would not get rated at our private for “most rigorous” by the HS college counselor if you don’t have the APs/honors of others. You are compared against kids from your own HS. Period [/quote]

At our private, they don't fill those rankings out. So maybe the advice only applies to certain high schools? It's why all this generic advice is pointless, because it boils down to your high school, then your region.[/quote]

All high schools (private and public) have a school profile that is part of the transcript they send. It includes all APs, honors, etc offered at the school, grading system, etc.

They know what is available and what you chose to take from that…and they compare you against what peers from you school took when applying to sane school.

It will also note if teacher/school approval is needed for taking an AP, etc. [/quote]
