[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just to reinforce the idea that there is no minimum - one of the DC area private schools with a very strong college admissions record actively caps the number of AP courses at 8, except under unusual circumstances. While colleges want to see students take the hardest courses available, this is far less important for high schools where there are multiple AP and post AP classes offered in every subject. Remember, the Ivies do not give any credit for AP and [b]scores are self-reported[/b], so they are read with a grain of salt. High schools in the DC area are well known to the admissions offices so they can judge a transcript in context. And the top colleges are very used to rejecting lots of candidates with over-the-top AP course loads.
