[quote=Anonymous]At our school, taking the AP exam is not mandatory. My kids took and are taking a lot of AP courses, but just took a few of the exams and did well, but not senior year (one might decide to, to place higher freshman year). They did not take AP classes to game their GPA. They took them for the rigor and genuine interest. It's been a very mixed bag in terms of how teachers (as much as I respect them) prepare them for exams. Mine had to self study for the APs they took, because most of their teachers did not stick to the AP curriculum which we found strange. No love for College Board here, a for-profit company having an undue influence on the education of our students.[/quote]
