[quote=Anonymous]I think that in general, kids are competing against others from their own school for admission, so the number of APs offered shouldn't make a difference in that regard. I really wonder though, about things like Monroe Scholar at W&M, which is offered to the "top 10%" of applicants. How do they calculate that other than comparing WGPAs and test scores across schools? Seems like kids from schools with more APs or schools that give weighted credit for both honors and APs are at an advantage (as are kids from less rigorous schools). I suspect my W&M admit from APS was disadvantaged in this regard, as APS does not give weighted credit for honors (unlike FCPS).[/quote]
