Taking a college classes instead of AP
Answered

I'm not sure how much this is a risk, but because all the stats videos I've seen mainly describe APs in place of College classes, I think it's worth thinking about.

Generally, at the end of my senior year Ill have:

4 APs

7-9 College Classes

The rest honors

My courses have little to no College prep classes, so I know it's considered rigorous, but is it the right kind of rigorous (wth am i saying)?

Hi @UrMom!

You're overthinking stuff. There are more stat videos (or for any class for that matter) because AP classes are more common and convenient as high schools and not colleges provide AP classes.

AP classes are NOT considered harder than/easier than dual enrollment (college courses). Both are considered to be equally rigorous.

Hope this helps!
