Hello I asked this for my S about “the most rigorious courses offered at hs”. Are they based on how many AP offered in his hs compared to How many he took, or How many he took compared to how many other students in his hs took?

For example, there are 18 AP courses offered at his hs. He took 3 in junior year, 4 in senior; while most other students took only 2 in junior year, 3 in senior year. If what he took are all core courses in AP English, Math, Social Sciences and Sciences , the counsellor will find he took the most rigorious courses in the school.

Will Yale agree with the coursellor? because he only took 7 AP, with only 3 in Junior, compared to 18 AP offered in the school.

Thank you for your advice!
