[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I teach an AP course.

I’ve taught the entire curriculum, explained format and structure and test taking tips, and given kids oodles of practice tests. It would not cross my mind that parents had to do anything. Your kids have this! Buy them the prep book if they ask for it, feed them well and make sure they get enough sleep, and let them know that a test does not determine their worth and you love them with straight 5s or 1s.[/quote]

This. My kids are in college and I never did anything for them other than discuss how to stand up to their high school coach to say they needed to leave practice to prepare for the exams. We never bought prep books. Both kids got 5 on most of the tests. Our biggest problem throughout high school was the coaches who never really cared about their kid's academics and never gave them a break around ap testing. [/quote]

This is rich. Most coaches would say, feel free to miss practice and by the way don’t barher coming to the next game. There is no “standing up” to coaches - they have policies and you don’t follow, you accept the consequences. [/quote]
