[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. The cost to which I am referring is the stress and countless hours of work required by AP classes.[b] Graduating college early is commendable and would save on costs, but how many people really do that[/b]? If AP classes are really preparing the students for college, why are the 4 year graduation rates so low,between 19-36%? http://www.usnews.com/news/blogs/data-mine/2014/12/01/report-too-much-freedom-hurts-college-graduation-rates And colleges seem to be moving to the 6 year graduation metric. "The overall national six-year completion rate for the fall 2009 cohort was 52.9 percent...after six years, fully one-third of the starting cohort had left higher education without earning a degree or certificate." https://nscresearchcenter.org/signaturereport10/#Discussion[/quote] I know of number of families for whom this was a necessity.
