[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Something sounds off here. Is your child a math or science major? Colleges usually don’t allow AP courses to replace science/math major gateway classes. Maybe Calc 1, but no others. An AP class is not equivalent to a 2 semester gateway course in college. They don’t pretend to be, either. AP courses are like a one semester general education course in college.[/quote] Your reading comprehension off. OP is upset that the AP courses, the gen ed intro prereqs, did not suffice to prepare the student for the follow-on courses. This might be due to weak AP courses, or due to inability to cope with the lifestyle change of going to college while maintaining academic momentum. [/quote]
