<p>I’m not sure. Seems pretty cool your friend is skipping grade 12. Aslong as your friend’s previous high school years have shown great strengths in academics, he might be a shoe in. If I am not wrong, lots of american students tend to take APs in early years because it’s implemented in the curriculum ever since you start middle school. In Canada, we are only allowed to take AP in grade 12. So, MIT would view him as any other applicant maybe, but base his application on the courses and GPA he earned.</p>
