[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you for your replies. My questions are:

1) Are your kids not taking MV calculus - not an AP class?
2) What about double period AP classes - like chemistry and bio, in our kid's HS? Do they not eat up into other classes (e.g. you can only take 6 subjects rather than seven)
3) My kid wants to take AP drawing but it takes a long time to get there (4 years). Any advice?[/quote]
Admissions departments gave them the eye brow and suggested slowing students down.[/quote] Why?[/quote]
The School is already very very intense, and big on being a public liberal arts high school. Colleges know it well, and thought the school was moving very far into STEM skills and give students a little breathing room. Back when there was MV calc, the school actually had you take BC calc sophomore year, which I don't think admissions departments love to see, unless you have a very technical application-which most students just didn't. The kids like to learn a lot, but you see many art history or english majors in a bunch of STEM courses.[/quote]
