<p>I am an international who'll be applying to colleges this year. I have heard that a lot of colleges place heavy emphasis of AP's. is it the same of internationals. Would not having taken them harm my prospects ?</p>
<p>From what I know, AP is only for credit in college.
But taking them in high school shows the rigourous classes that the student takes and gives a plus.
So ap exams aren’t that important, but just taking ap classes are in a way</p>
