[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rigor definitely matters for Ivy League recruiting.  Coaches submit to admissions current transcript for GPA, next year's class schedule to assure rigor, ACT or SAT test scores, as well as school profile information from college counseling dept.

My public school kid was recruited by Ivies and other top academic schools for a different non-revenue sport, and the coaching staff reviewed his transcript for both grades and class selection before moving forward. Once he committed, the assistant coaches reviewed his proposed class slate each semester to make sure he continued to meet the admissions threshold, and they told him the minimum SAT and ACT score he needed to be safe. The level of rigor required was definitely lower than what a non-recruited athlete would need, though. They said Calculus A/B junior year followed by Stats senior year was fine, for example, when all the non-athletes aiming for schools of this caliber were taking B/C followed by multivariable calculus. They also were fine with 6-7 APs instead of the 10-12 most ambitious students took. [/quote]

Weird my son had 0 APs and nobody cared.[/quote]
