[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DS took 7 total and is in his 2nd yr at Princeton. What you took and why and how that impacted you is so much more important than racking up 12-13 APs.[/quote] +1. Mine took 8, at a high school that offers many, and is at a T10. I find this forum consistently overestimates the number of APs needed to be competitive. College admissions is not a race to the most APs.[/quote] That’s because not all AP courses are the same difficulty. AP Calculus BC, Physics (2), Chemistry, English (2), History (2) are all 8 classes but are the most rigorous one can take. If you’re going after the number you’ll do the easier ones like Human geography, precalculus, Calculus AB that don’t matter much.[/quote]
