[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While I think AP classes can be useful for getting rid of the Gen Eds that they don't bother with in Europe, I am not that excited about my child graduating too early. I'd rather they take good courses with good professors.

The elite schools don’t accept AP credits.

My kid at an Ivy got zero credits for the APs (all 5s). They may get you into a higher course- or are noted on your transcript.

If you are coming out with a degree from these schools they want you coming out with their level of prep.

I think that even though you don’t get credit reporting 5s is just another piece to show the schools - along with standardized tests, gpa, etc. [/quote]

Stop spewing this shit.

Only 8 colleges don’t accept AP tests which includes Harvard and Brown.

The rest of the Ivy schools do, though for most they only accept STEM and language and only a 5. Same for Stanford and other Ivy plus.

MIT accepts humanities APs in addition to some STEM.[/quote]
