[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately many schools, such as UCs, care about count if AP classes taken and care much less about the AP test score. This feeds rampant grade inflation.

Kids from schools that limit and/or do away with APs because the coursework is ‘too easy’ likely get a better education, but suffer in the AO eye test.

Everyone taking a AP class should be required to take the AP exam.

State U has their mission to educate their residents.  UC is test blind, before they take AP test scores, they have to first reinstate test required.  Even that is hopeless considering that test required policy will badly disadvantage underserved students in state.

Private schools like Yale can do whatever they want.[/quote]

You are misinformed, UC schools take AP scores into account for admissions. Test blind does not cover AP scores.[/quote]

There is a distinction between AP score required and AP score considered.  OP was asking AP score required.[/quote]
