[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College aren't behind the ridiculous AP expectations, parents are. Colleges admit the best of who applies. Parents are the ones pushing their DDs and DSs to have more APs than the last kid who got in. Going to a school that limits how many APs you can take in a year is a great thing for stress and wellness.[/quote] I somewhat agree with this but will say that my DD attends a rigorous private that does not offer APs. It is, in reality, no less of a pressure cooker. It's all about college admissions for most of these kids. We have really tried to get her to focus on learning and worry about college later, but no one is doing that (even though the school pushes it , too). I totally agree that the craziness is coming form the parents for the most part, and that filters through the peer group. [/quote]
