[quote=Anonymous]I just went through revisit days for private and boarding schools for my rising 9th grader. All have eliminated AP classes recently, but "offer" AP exams to students who "wish" to take them. The schools don't seem to be recommending kids take AP exams for boosting college admissions per se. One college counselor gave one theoretical example of a potential benefit in taking an AP exam, for example, in chemistry, as a proxy for demonstrating adequate quantitative skills if the kid opted to go SAT/ACT optional for whatever reason. Having said that, all these schools had a brutal college admissions year, so I don't think anyone know if taking AP tests matter at all. [/quote]
