[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] It depends entirely on how much they want to achieve (AP classes vs non, is instrumental music part of their load, variety athlete or not, etc)[/quote] +1. My DS took a mix of regular (English), honors (usually social studies) and AP classes that he was actually interested in (Physics, math, psych) and never had a lot of homework. Actually math homework was always optional in his HS classes (I think it could be done for extra credit?) and I don't think he ever studied for a test in any subject - he always got by with paying attention in class. He applied to colleges with mostly As and good test scores and did just fine with college admissions. He focused most of his free time on music and needed downtime with his ADHD. He was never going to do hours of AP lit or history reading. He was still well-prepared for college and is in grad school now. [/quote] Smart kid. Too bad more people don’t apply this logic. [/quote]
