Is My Schedule Too Much?

I guess I see where you are coming from. I still don’t believe that my school has low expectations for advanced math students. There is a lot of material to cover and the schedule does not allow students more time to learn the subject than those of college students. I mean, the courses in college, or at least at my community college, are 3 to 4 hours long. My math class is only 1 and half hours long. So naturally in a college, they would have time to learn more on the subject, right?

I understand the community college class and taking the AP exam. However, my guidance counselor has advised against this seeing that it would be a waste of time or something like that. Is there any advantage to taking both the cc class and the AP exam other than the concern of cc credit not being more widely accepted by other colleges?
