[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As far as number of APs/IBs, it's the same story. UVA and other very selective colleges tell prospective students that they expect applicants to be taking the most challenging classes at their high school. So if a high school sets a limit at say 2 a year, UVA expects you to take 2. If your high school has no limit and your peers are taking 4+ AP/IB a year, UVA expects you to be taking 4+.[/quote]Which is why these people who insist DS or DD needs 10-12 APs to get into UVA and the like are making things worse. There are very real conversations, as I'm sure some of you know, about putting some limits on how many APs students can take so we can get some balance back into kids' lives.[/quote]
