[quote=Anonymous]There is a point of diminishing marginal returns on APs. 12 vs. 14 vs. 16 really doesn't matter. I agree with other posters that at some point I would prefer the kid used the periods for band, art, PE, relaxing with friends, or whatever else and weren't spending their whole spring semesters studying for APs. Also, in the northeast where schools often start after Labor Day, the timing of APs is tough - several fewer weeks of class to prepare. So the kids have to do even more cramming. Finally, for those with fewer financial resources, APs are incredible if they let you spend less time in college and save money. However, for those who can, I think you are better off taking the classes at college. Particularly at smaller schools, intro classes are actually great. Thirty years later I regret placing out of an intro class where the professor was one of the best professors at the school.[/quote]
