[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids college will not give credit for a course that counted towards HS grad but it can be helpful for kids going to UMD. I learned it is considered an easier route then AP because there is no big exam. [/quote] +1 DE can be much easier than AP. Top-tier schools do not like seeing DE. This makes sense for lower income students going to local colleges who really need to save money by graduating in less than four years. [/quote] At the start of my son's high school years, we thought about it and came to all the same conclusions. The way dual enrollment was advertised always seemed fishy to me, and now posters have explained about declining community college enrollment and funds diversion, it all makes better sense. [/quote] Same here. We went the IB route instead.[/quote]
