What APs did he already take, which ones will he take and most importantly which are offered that he is not taking?
Two 4s on 10th grade APs is not a great start though it depends on the AP. With the 2024 AP scoring shift, a 4 means top 35-50% for most tests. Pre-2024 a 4 meant top20-25% for many tests.

9 APs through 11th grade when the list includes BC cal, AP literature and language, APUSH, APphys1, APPhysC, APchem, AP gov, couple others is a heck of a lot more impressive than a list with AB Cal, HUGeo, World, APES, AP lang. 
yes the first list is possible to do at some high schools by 5-10%of students by the end of 11th grade. By the end of senior year it would be expected for 20% of the class.

If 3.95 is UW and 4.5 is W that is anywhere between top few students and outside the top 20% depending on the high school.
