[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It means AP Physics C not 1 or 2
It means Calculus BC not AB 
It means AP Chem and/or AP Bio not AP Psych or AP Environmental Science
It means both AP Lit and AP Language
It means AP Histories for 3+ years
It means AP Foreign Language 
AP Stats is a nice add on but not in lieu of BC Calc

The amount of pressure and stress a child would be under completing this kind of workload, at 14-17 years old, is horrible. I am disturbed that parents are allowing the colleges to demand this kind of load on someone who is not actually at the age of a college level class.  We are not buying into this and if our DDs go to a lower ranked college because they only completed 5 APs and all honors, and 2 of those honors were AP Psych and AP Environmental Science, then so be it.  They’ll still have a college degree and in most fields, thar’s what matters.  We are not demanding more of them unless they ask for those other classes.[/quote]
