<p>Here’s an intellectual exercise …</p>
<p>I understand admissions officers will evaluate applications in the context of the opportunities available to the student. For example, the student who took the one AP course offered by their school may be looked upon more highly than a student who took only one AP course at a school that offers a full slate of AP courses. </p>
<p>And the student who doesn’t challenge himself by taking the honors and AP courses, but takes the AP tests and does well, may show the committee that he is smart (or that he tests well) but that he doesn’t apply himself day-to-day. </p>
<p>So if our homeschooling students have access to many different AP online providers, but we choose to completely self-study, would that possibly concern the admissions committee?</p>
