[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child wants to take 6 AP classes next year and not do a 7th class. The 6 AP classes will be very rigorous and my child will double up on math. However my child does not want to take a language and also doesn't want to take a filler class so that the child can work on extracurriculars and schoolwork. Thoughts on this? I'd say [b]this kid had a good shot at T20 schools [/b]so I don't want this to mess things up. On the flip side applications are basically a full time class....[/quote] If he is truly the caliber for T20, he will want to put in the work for a hard course in his academically weaker area. Multiple ivies/T20 admin officers say exactly that on tour days: they want to see students have challenged themselves in all core areas, even the areas they do not like. True top kids thrive on challenge! Schools want to see that. [/quote]
