<p>Here’s a departure from other posts that indicate many schools encourage both AB and BC:</p>
<p>My D’s school is considering restricting the act of taking both AB and BC. Their rationale is that kids are perfectly capable of going straight from Precalc to AB or to BC. Their premise is that kids who take both are just gaming the system for the extra weighted class (‘double-dipping’). So, now, they’re considering restricting course selection for EITHER AB or BC, but not both. (Or maybe they’ll allow you to take both, but not award the extra point, not sure)</p>
<p>So, even if my D were not ‘gaming the system’, just insecure (unfounded) about her math skills, I wasn’t sure if colleges viewed it the same way as this HS apparently does.</p>
