[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only time my DC was stressed was when he took 5 APs, taking 3 was easy. And DC still did plenty of extracurrics and varsity sports all 3 seasons. APs don't take away from electives - if you take AP history instead of honors history, or AP Calc instead of regular calc you are just swapping core classes you would be taking anyway. But if you don't think they are right for your kid then suggest he not take them.[/quote] +1. AP is not hard or time consuming for all kids. AP saved my kid from being bored to tears at school in core classes. And DC would rather take an extra AP History as an elective rather than Ceramics or Yoga or Yearbook. In fact, I wish more AP classes were permitted earlier. Kids are different. [/quote]
