[quote=Anonymous]Kid just don't need to take more than 6 or 7 APs to crack colleges admitting in the single digits and teens as long as they're extra curriculars and/or work/internship experience knock it out of the park, their GPAs are impressive (not necessarily in the the top 1%, or even 5% at the school).  However, they need 4s and 5s on the exams (mostly 5s) to pull it off, or to be on track for IB Diploma points in the high 30s-40s if they're not legacies, recruited athletes or musicians.

Many kids take one AP class/exam, then take another with overlap content without taking the class at all these schools: JR, Walls, Banneker, MoCo options.

Common overlap content choices below.  Students usually just take one of the classes, but perhaps both exams after self study in one subject.

World History and US History
US Govt and Politics and Comparative Govt and Politics
World History and European History
US Govt and Politics and US History
French and Latin
English Lit and Composition and English Language and Composition
Physics 1, 2 and C
Studio Art 2-D and 3-D[/quote]
