Interesting point @bopper. I forget – do high school profiles that accompany transcripts list all the AP courses offered?

Of course, given the scarce amount of time they have to consider an applicant, I wonder how much admissions reviewers even look at that list. We live in an affluent district – so they might assume we have AP classes we don’t. The reason we don’t is the we’re the smallest HS in our district.

I think the Comp Sci A is the more challenging option – but a little more risky b/c it’s online course and harder. Not sure what he’ll decide.

Tks to all for weighing in!
