[quote=Anonymous][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]

Ok sure they don’t care if you didn’t take Ap studio art, Ap cs principles, Ap ES,  if they aren’t your speciality. But the core ones? Absolutely take those.

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][/quote]
