@iubaccounting, congratulations on your job with DFAS for when you graduate!
The D of one of my friends graduated about 4 or 5 years ago from Kelley and she had several great job offers to choose from her Senior year. Her internship opportunities helped her get that all-important first job out of school as well. I’m sure that’s a big relief and now you can just focus on wrapping up your studies and enjoying the rest of your Senior year.
As far as AP classes go, I agree, a lot depends on the teacher and the reputation of a class at each school. For example, right now there is a lot of upheaval in APES bc a teacher is on leave and the one who is teaching the class now is not as familiar with it, so lots of complaints from the kids taking that class. So not all “easy” APs are easy if the teacher isn’t strong.
Do you mind sharing how many and which schools you applied to in HS? I want D to apply to more than our two state flagships and was trying to get a few other options for her to look into OOS. She’s interested in a bigger school with a good Business reputation that offers some decent merit for OOS and the Direct Admit feature is certainly attractive. I’m thinking maybe 6 schools total would be a good number (mostly safeties/matches and one semi reach).
Thanks again for responding to my questions! Maybe others (students/parents) can share their input as well.
