<p>^ i know how u feel. :(</p>

<p>I am a little puzzled about your friend. 9 APs before senior year? It seems like a lot as most schools in our area, also MD, caution against that many. My D graduated with 10, but 4 were taken senior year. And no SAT I? In Maryland?</p>

7

<p>Well I am also going into senior year and I took 8 APs. My friend and I made it our goal to get national AP scholar as juniors (a goal which we both achieved!).</p>

<p>Our school, contrary to your beliefs encourages us to take as many APs as possible... though we have taken the most at our school thus far as a result of us each self studying 2 APs. </p>

<p>The ACT is actually quite common in maryland, or at least where we live. however while I am taking the SAT, he did the ACT because his PSAT scores were less than desireable and he decided not to risk getting an unfavorable score.</p>

<p>My daughter had a few friends who also did a lot of APs. But with self-study (congrats on the natl AP scholar), it makes much more sense. The only students I know who went the ACT route also had concerns about SAT scores, particularly the writing section. Good luck to him.</p>
