[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another parent from another DMV school: the shift away from APs has hurt these students. Families are told the schools know the rigor of your curriculum. Maybe they do, but how much do they care when they spend a couple of minutes on each application? And if you want to apply to the UC schools or ones abroad, good luck without any APs. A little more guidance early on would have been helpful. But yes, I'm very happy about the education and opportunities dc has received at this DMV independent school. [/quote] Yes from another top 5 school that has told us they provide a school data sheet that outlines the rigor with the applications--had a college admissions officer specifically tell me, no one reading applications will know your school or have time to read their data sheet...unless your dream school is an east coast LAC familiar with your school, going to a rigorous DMV private without APs is a detriment to college admissions.[/quote]
