[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My college professor sibling in a science field said that the students who struggle the most in her class are the ones who received AP credit for the intro level course and were able to skip it and go directly to her course. The material they learned and receiving a 4 or 5 on the test is NOT equal to the depth of the material taught in the level 101 course according to her. She strongly advised against taking APs for credit and did the same for her kids. [/quote] I can see why she would advise not taking the science related APs for credit. But at the same time, I don't think that the students should use this as an excuse to not take the AP exam at all.....which I think some of them do. Anyone can claim that they would have gotten a 4 or a 5 on the test. That's not the same thing as actually scoring a 4 or a 5 on the exam. [/quote]
