[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My sophomore is at a top high school in the area and the counselor highly advises kids against taking AP courses. I feel like they are set kids up for failure. [/quote] Well counselor is setting kid up for failure because she’s kid’s course rigor is being compared to kids who did take APs.[/quote] It is not “failure”. Let’s normalize teen years without mental breakdowns. F the hyper-competitive high school culture. 2-3 APs late in high school is enough to prove college readiness. Stop the insanity. [/quote] +1 I suspect PP is at private school. My sophomore hasn't taken any APs, plans 2 for next year and will likely graduate with 4-5 total. This is typical at our private school. [/quote]
