[quote=Anonymous]My perspective as the father of a Wottoon graduate who took a few of the hardcore AP classes, Chemistry, BC Calc, Statistics and one that I considered light Economics. He got 5s on all classes and was able to enter college with 30 transfer credits(he took a summer class at Cornell) These credits are enabling him to graduate in 4 1/2 years with a BS in CHem Eng and a MS in Mech Eng. This will help him tremendously in the workplace with a higher starting salary and more job choices. The credits also helped him in that his workload is 4-5 classes each semester. Now a lot of schools cap the number of AP credits they accept(his did at 30) and many schools dont honor them at all(check the Ivys) So your milage may vary. Any kids who took 11 AP classes seriously needs to learn how to get a life in college.[/quote]
