[quote=Anonymous]If a student is interested in taking APs and is equipped to handle the extra workload, what is the problem? I had a friend in college who graduated a full year early because she had so many AP credits that she almost qualified as a sophomore when she started as a freshman. That is a huge amount of money to save, and its even more important now when college is so outrageously expensive. Sure, let kids be kids, but I think that mentality needs to change somewhat given the dire state of our higher education system in this country. College should be seen more as a means to getting an education than a right of passage "experience" that it has been for the privileged class in this country. [/quote]
