My school offers a ton of Post-ap classes like Post AP Psychology and Multi-variable Calculus. Would taking these classes help me get into college at all? Would you have to take an AP class to get into a Post AP class or would taking an AP test for the class after self studying be enough to get in it? I can’t really find any find any information online so I thought I might ask around here. Thanks in advance.
No. Colleges want you to take the most rigorous courseload possible and still perform well. “Most rigorous” depends upon the parameters set by your school.
That’s the policy of your HS; ask your GC.
AP is a national program run by the College Board. “Post-AP” classes are unique to your school, so no one outside your high school will know what their prerequisites are. They will help your college applications in the same way that any challenging classes will. There’s no reason to self-study AP exams. If your high school offers classes above the level of AP, you should definitely be able to take them by the end of your senior year without self-studying.
