[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, a reason for taking AP classes if you don’t care about getting college credit/placement is that they are a recognized way to show rigorous course selection on the transcript. Not having them is not held against a student at a school that doesn’t offer them, however. [/quote] My kid's school -- and I assume other schools that don't offer AP classes -- have other ways to designate more rigorous classes. The school profile, together with the transcript, makes it very obvious.[/quote] I was specifically referring to why take AP classes at a school that offers them. Sorry if I wasn’t clear about that. [/quote] College Admissions usually will benefit if DC can earn 4s and 5s prior to start of senior year of HS -- and includes those on their college application package. [/quote] College admissions benefit from seeing the APs on your senior course list because it shows you are continuing to take courses they recognize as challenging.[/quote]
