[quote=Anonymous]AP/College Board is a business. They are offering more and more useless AP classes and schools are offering them to look competitive compared to other schools. But the AP classes themselves are easier than the honors and advanced classes they replaced. Good universities are not going to give you transcript credit for those basic AP classes; they are just warmups. Nevertheless kids are stuck if their school offers the AP bc now it feels like you have to take AP Sem or HUG or APES or whatever when you probably would have learned a lot more in a rigorous elective. So annoying. Why are we sending our tax dollars to College Board for this stuff?! BUT College AOs know the true rigor of the high schools in their region. If the school doesn’t offer those junk APs and only offers a few top ones (or none), it is should not hurt the applicant.[/quote]
