Dual or AP class?
Answered

Recently had a conflict between taking an AP english class or a dual enrollment class. Is there a specific one that looms better on transcripts?

Here's an article from the collegevine blog that may help you look at some pros of each: blog.collegevine.com/ap-vs-dual-enrollment/

Overall, both are good options. I would personally choose dual enrollment since it seems to be slightly easier/more laid back than AP classes, but AP classes may look better as they are often very rigorous and show that you are willing to take on something of that level.
