Chalk Talk: AP vs. Regular Classes
Advanced Placement (AP) classes offer college credit for students. This is appealing, of course, because it can mean that a student doesn’t have to take this class again in college, and some students are even able to enter college as sophomores because they have so many AP credits. But not every college accepts AP credits in this way; some merely advance students to the next level of the class. Some don’t give any credit at all, but if the student did well on the exam, then this looks good to colleges, even if they don’t accept the credit. Some high schools weight AP classes, which means that they give students more credit on their transcripts. This might appear beneficial, but it doesn’t really accomplish much for the student; colleges tend to configure their own GPA, which might be unweighted or weighted in a different way and might even exclude some classes. The goal with any student’s class selection is to focus on having challenging classes and doing well in them, whatever that might entail.
