[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UVA and the Ivies all want to see four years of foreign language, AP if offered.[/quote]

AP classes are offered but not everyone can take them. If my kid starts 9th grade taking Spanish 1, he can’t take AP Spanish. He would get to Spanish 4 by senior year. [/quote]

The top colleges don’t give you slack for that. That’s like saying that Ap Calc Bc is offered but because you took Algebra 1 in 9th, you can’t take it. [b]You will still be penalized if it is offered AT ALL, to someone, and you aren’t on track to take it. [/b]Same goes for other subjects. Maybe if you put something in the special information section that you came from a ms where hs level FL wasn’t offered, but otherwise you can’t pull a fast one.

[b]Abject bull crap.[/quote][/b]

No, it isn't.  The elite schools look for students who have "taken the most rigorous courses" offered by that particular high school.[/quote]

That doesn't mean you have to take every AP offered (which may be impossible anyway).[/quote]
