<p>What Kdog044 said is spot-on. I really don’t like when people say that APs are, at best, at community college level (one highly esteemed CC poster whom I won’t mention by name has said this before). That just isn’t true. It is true, I’d wager, that classes at the absolute top colleges tend to be harder than AP classes. However, if AP classes were THAT easy compared to real college classes, no colleges would accept them.</p>
