This approach is very helpful. This is exactly the ranking info I’d assume would be helpful but am at a point where I need to poll other parents and students - not going to happen. I’m hoping when we meet with the academic counselor in spring for junior year classes and have the sophomore parent nights with the college counselors, the data will become a little more clear.
The limits on the number of honors and AP’s allowed per year at his school is just below average. The maximum would be 3 sophomore year and 4 junior and senior year but ONLY allowed if you also take a free period. So no electives or band/orchestra opportunities. But study habits and bandwidth considering, I don’t know if he’d successfully reach that.
Sophomores took the Pre-ACT previously this month so we’ll have our first data point for testing.
