[quote=Anonymous]PP - the reason why private school kids don't have 10 APs is because their school does not offer AP classes or encourage students to necessarily sign up for the exams. But at publics, the AP system is the way to distinguish yourself and that's why students pile them on. And it looks like colleges still like AP coursework. Big 3 parents are complaining about how the school administration has put them at a disadvantage. They are not complaining or claiming that their kids are smarter than public school kids. And I don't think a 4.5 GPA public student is "objectively" better than a 3.5 - 3.7 student at a Big 3. Believe it or not, those A- and even B+s are hard to come by when the teachers are deflating grades and there are no retakes or second chances or quarter grades being dropped in favor of the highest grade.
