[quote=Anonymous]I had posted earlier but I will add that I think it depends on the private school and the perception of rigor. One of mine went to a top private where we live (in CA). The schools, including the UCs, know it and not having APs does not seem to matter. Our other kid went to a private that did not have the same reputation. They had only a couple APs for language (and my kid took a language without an AP available). That kid had a harder time with large state schools because I feel they were hoping for a high weighted GPA, which my kid did not have because no APs were available. Their school weighted honors classes but you had to test in and they did not start until junior year. My kid tested into a few but was not a perfect student so did not get enough of a bump up (but unweighted should have been good enough for the state schools that rejected). It all worked out for the best, but I do think it matter at large state schools.[/quote]
