[quote=Anonymous]My high school (in the early 1990s) did not offer AP classes (it offered its own “accelerated” equivalent classes, while not being bound to the AP curricula), so this was commonly done. I took several AP exams and scored 4s and 5s on them. My kids are history nerds, and while both took the AP social sciences, they jave expressed confidence that they would have scored 5s on the exams in Gov and US History even without having taken the classes (both are taught poorly and in a shallow manner in their MCPS high school). Also, my nephew took the AP physics 1 exam as a freshman because his MCPS hs would not allow him to take the class as a freshman and scored a 5. [/quote]
