[quote=Anonymous]At every admissions session I've attended on tours with two kids over past couple of years at T25 or so schools, the Admissions offices emphasized that they are not looking for a particular number of APs or the like, but instead are looking as to whether the student has taken the most rigorous schedule offered by the school. So for some schools, that means zero APs, for some it means a mix of APs and IB courses and for others it means a lot of APs. And of course not all APs are alike. Most obvious example: AP precalc is not going to count as much as AP Calc. One option is to consult with your school's guidance counselor. They have to fill out the common app rec for students, and one of the things that asks counselors to do is to check a box indicating the level of rigor of the student's schedule. Just ask the counselor what type of schedule gets the most rigorous box checked.[/quote]
