[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP. I asked this same question when my oldest was in 10th grade and I began looking at this board. I was so confused how students could have over a 4.0 average. Now I know - every distract calculates things differently. But the colleges recalculate and their websites will describe their methodology (and if you can’t find the info just call and ask - they seem to be fine about disclosing). It also threw me off to realize how many AP kids in other districts are taking. But that matters only in the context of your kids’ own high school. So as long as they are taking a good portion of their schools most rigorous courses, don’t stress about your kiddo not having 15 APs. [/quote] I'm not sure how they are getting in 15 AP's as that's 4-5 a year and most schools don't offer that many. MCPS has kids take AP Gov for freshman year. So, they start out early, A few kids may take another AP class as an elective too. That would give you two.[/quote]
