[quote=Anonymous][quote]Independent college counselor is right. To apply to high tier schools you will need higher SAT and need to have taken most rigorous classes. 7 AP classes total not nearly enough. [/quote] This is completely false as AO's consider kids within the context of their school and class. So a kid at a highly resourced public school where most of the students are taking APs will be expected to have more than a kid at a private school that doesn't allow or limits AP classes for freshman and sophomores. Both students are taking a rigorous schedule, but the number of AP classes will be different. This contextual assessment of rigorous schedules is why no educational consultant or AO can provide a definitive answer regarding the number AP classes students should take. [/quote]
