[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At which point the school has a series of options -- e.g. don't offer APUSH, offer it but devote 2 course periods to it (as they do to math and science APs), limit the number of APs a kid can take each year. Basically, the college has defined its position in a way that leaves it up to the HS how pressured the most rigorous courseload can be.[/quote] omg - GDS has AP classes take up two periods? They don't do this at every private do they? And what about at BCC? Isn't it just one period? [/quote] Two periods just means that the class can meet up to 6 times a week rather than being limited to 3 times a week. Re GDS & humanities APs -- no AP English Lit or Euro History offered, but AP U.S. History is offered and so are French and Spanish language APs. Also a few AP social sciences -- e.g. Psych and Comp Govt. [/quote]
