@Spencek I would take an actual AP class offered at your school rather than 2 study halls where you self study for Ap exams. Trust me on this. You are better off taking community college courses in the summer in areas of interest- Ivy’s love this. My son took Accounting, Computer Science and Stat at our local community college over the summers and mostly Ap’s all years- except freshman year no Ap’s were allowed. My son was just accepted to Wharton.
I was told (and read) that colleges don’t care how many Coursera courses you have taken or self study for Ap’s- They would rather see you in the school classrooms utilizing the most challenging courses your school offers and developing an extracurricular passion that has impact. Never ever take a study hall…
