Dual Enrollment vs. AP Courses

<p>Which are more impressive to colleges, dual enrollment with a nearby college or AP courses at your high school? Looking at my schedule for senior year, I may only take 3 or 4 AP classes but I'll possibly take 6 AP tests. Since I'll be dual enrolling some courses offered at the AP level at my high school.</p>

<p>I'm just wondering if schools, like the Ivies, Georgetown, Duke, etc, would be happier with dual enrollment courses. Also, I plan on taking them over at Lehigh Univ. I want to dual enroll Calc 2, Latin or Spanish, Econ, Philosophy, or Computer Science. I'll have possibly three spots for dual enrollment courses.</p>

<p>I've already taken AP in these subjects: U.S. History, Gov, World His, Calc AB and BC, Physics B, English Lang. Next year I'll definitely have AP: Chem, English Lit, Macro Econ.</p>

<p>Depends on the college which you will be taking courses at and the colleges you will be attending later.</p>

<p>State universities generally have articulation agreements with same-state community colleges, so that the courses will transfer. But other four year college courses may have to be evaluated individually. But many private universities are stingy with credit from college courses taken while in high school, especially at community colleges or through dual enrollment. Check each university for its transfer credit policy.</p>

<p>If you aced calculus BC and the test in high school, you should be ready for calculus 3. You may want to review calculus 1 and 2 final exams from the college to be sure that you know everything, though.

<p>I think courses at Lehigh would be more impressive than any AP class.</p>
