Hello. I am junior and I am currently taking 2 AP Classes that are offered in my school. Since I transfed to school during middle of my junior year, there was not enough spaces for me take the classes so I decided to take 2 AP Online classeses
I heard from many people that online classes look bad and college just think students take online class because they want to get better grades in easier class. I am currently taking AP Calculus BC and AP comparative government.
Any advices?
What you’ve heard is a rumor, and a false one at that. Taking online AP classes is fine.
My son, a senior has been admitted to all his schools thus far and has received a prestigeous scholarship from the school he will be attending. This year he is taking three AP classes on line, since two were not offered and he could not fit the third in his schedule. It makes NO difference. If you take the AP test at the end of the year and get a 4 or 5, same difference.Don’t listen to the nay sayers.
But those 2 ap classes are offered at my school. I am just worried that colleges may think I took AP online classes because i am lazy and want easier classes than ap at school. Isn’t that true?
No? Why would you even come to that conclusion? Are you just taking seven P.E. classes and those two online AP courses…? 
How would that make you look lazy for adding on TWO extra (AP) classes? It wouldn’t be fair for a college to put you into the reject pile over that - they don’t know the student’s circumstances (ex. as mentioned in the above posts, course not offered at school/no room in course) and it’d be unfair for them to make a baseless assumption that the student is trying to be lazy.
What looks bad is not having any AP classes.
It is fine and you can ask your guidance counselor to mention that you were closed out of the APs in the school so you took them online when he/she writes the recommendation (or you can note it in the additional comments section if he/she won’t include it). Should not be an issue.
Bump
Yeah be sure to talk to your guidance counselor and be sure s/he knows that you are taking the extra APs. Might be enough to bump up your “academic rigor.”
