[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Top colleges do not punish kids for taking fun electives. Once a kid has 5 classes that are the most rigorous their school offers, their electives don't matter. Now if the student decides they "hate writing" and refuse to take AP Lang and any AP history, then top schools will not be impressed. It would be fine to skip AP Lang and AP history and make up for it with [b]AP Studio art and AP Music theory[/b].[/quote] Both of those are serious work-intensive courses that expect high level performance-- not "fun" classes.[/quote] This. PP is an idiot who thinks you listen to music or make a pot and get an AP. Ummm. Not even close. You need years of training in art or music to even consider taking this class. I would love to see PP’s kid wander into AP music theory, the “easy elective”. :roll: [/quote]
