In our district there is regular track, not called “college prep”, as those courses are not usually taken by students who are planning for college.
The students that are planning for college are taking honors classes, then as many AP/iB courses as they can.
However, in the past a few courses have been tweaked by teachers to be genuine college prep courses without being AP and students may receive credit for them at our states flagship U.
My older daughters private school did not offer AP or IB, but the whole school was considered college prep although they did offer honors in a few subjects which entailed extra assignments and meetings on top of the regular schedule.
