[quote=Anonymous]My oldest is in college now and he went the Hon US history pathway as a HS freshman. It never occurred to me that some kids take APs that early because I went to a small HS with only a few AP classes. It was probably for the best as it took him some time to adjust to the higher pace of HS. He did AP Gov/NSL in sophomore year and while it wasn't hard per se, it was a ton of work. I don't think it hurt his college prospects - he got into a great SLAC with 7 total AP classes and everything else honors. His younger sibling starts HS next week and he was placed in AP Gov/NSL as a freshman with the expectation that he takes APUSH as a sophomore. He loves history/politics so I think he'll do OK. My oldest didn't take any math or science APs and I doubt the younger one will either, so the more AP history classes they can take, the better.[/quote]
