Based on what we knew from forums and posts, It’s hard to say how many AP’s are needed for an admission in to good colleges. seems many students are having at least 7 plus AP’s. My D in her current junior year taking all AP Classes( AP Chem/Literature/US Hist/Environ/Cal AB) except Spanish. In her senior year all classes are going to be AP. In her Sophomore, she had Ap Computer science and AP world Hist. had AP Geography in fresh man year. She will end up taking total 14 AP classes. It was not planned, but that’s how her sequence was set by school for advanced students.
As a parent I feel sorry to see how much time she has to spend( go to bed daily around 1 -2 am) on projects/tests/quizzes while balancing other activities involved. LOT of hard work that goes in with more AP’s.
