[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seriously. AAP isn’t that prestigious. AAP is basically honors level classes renamed for people who do well on the CogAD. My DC failed to get into AAP, did HN level classes, and still got into AP level classes in their freshman year. AAP won’t help you get into colleges; unless your child wants to mention going all the way back to your elementary and middle school path. Also, the HN coursework is very similar to AAP itself. [/quote] —— Of course it won’t help you get in to a college, but it’s a pathway that builds on each year, right up to applying to college I agree, it’s not like being accepted to Harvard, unless you don’t get in..then parents have a fit for some reason. I never did AP in school and I still managed an Ivy League MBA. However, we did the process for our daughter and she was accepted, but honestly we would have been ok in any regard. Our view on all this is parents seem to stress themselves and their kids out going through the process and it makes you wonder who it is actually for. [/quote][/quote]
