[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i have to admit i do not get the backlash against AP classes. If I was in charge of college admissions and I had two kids, one of whom went to Sidwell Friends and took no APs, and one who went to a public high school and took a slew of AP classes (and did well on the AP tests), I'd be inclined to take the public-school kid. [/quote] Clueless Did you also know that MCPS gives an entire 1.0 higher for both honors and AP courses. And MCPS "honors" courses are basically "not remedial" courses. Did you know that a 79.5 and a 89.5 equal an A for a semester every time at MCPS So a kid taking honors English will get a 5.0 for those two grades above? [/quote]
