[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many schools don't even accept them as credits any more. It's really not worth the trouble unless you are going to a large public school - think VA Tech or UMD etc. Smaller more competitive schools do not take 5's as credits. [/quote] Urban myth. There are 8 schools that don’t take them at all…the rest give credit in different amounts. Credit at top schools leans towards STEM and language only.[/quote] I have to think there are more than 8 that don't take AP scores. My kids' top 20 LAC doesn't take them. [/quote] The schools are Harvard, Amherst, Dartmouth, Brown, Caltech, Williams, Duke…and I can’t find the last one. Go to the AP site and search many top schools under their credit policy search…Princeton, Stanford, MIT and all others accept APs for some classes.[/quote]
