Trust me, she does all that too. Works, multiple clubs and volunteering for over 5 years with 2 different organizations. Anyway, not sure why everyone is so down on someone taking an AP class independently. Whether a college gives her any bonus points, or not, it doesn’t really matter. This one thing isn’t going to tip a college decision either way. At the end of the day, she loves the subject, learned a lot and scored a 5.
