[quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure I see the problem. As I recall high school (which was at a good-not-great school), the standard approach was that all students in any "honors" classes were expected to take the AP exam, while those in the regular classes could choose whether or not to take the AP exam. I think I ended up with 10 APs (English, language, English lit, French, biology, chemistry, physics, calculus, US history, European history, art history). I can't remember whether we took the US government one. I don't recall any special prep for the APs or stress over them; you just took the regular course and then took the AP exam. I seem to recall that some teachers even let us skip the final exam if we took the AP, which made the course less stressful than other courses. This is not some sort of brag -- I was only a good-not-great student. My point is simply that AP exams and courses need not be stressful if approached with the right attitude.[/quote]
