[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The colleges driving the push for kids to take 5 AP classes at a time, plus intense ECS that show their "passion" plus the rest of the their schedule... it is ridiculous. in college 5 classes is a full schedule - that is probably 16 credit hours right there. That is a FULL SCHEDULE. But we expect these kids to be doing a full college level schedule (with a huge amount of homework that no way reflects the homework level of actual college classes in college) PLUS the other 2 classes they need for graduation, PLUS time intensive ECS, PLUS doing all the college apps and writing essays to sell themselves. It is ridiculous. AP system is a scam and shame on colleges for buying in to the hype and screwing over our kids. [/quote] No colleges don't expect this - other parents push this expectation on others. [/quote]
