<p>Many schools cannot afford to offer both honors classes and AP classes. Our hs does not have honors bio, chem, physics or ES, only regular and AP. So if a student wants to take an AP class for both the benefit of a weighted grade and more knowledge and not take the AP test, why should that be a problem? How is that “gaming” the system?</p>
<p>Our school does not pay for the exams, we have to. And while all the classes have the same requirements, it is obvious from reading the forums that some teachers are more proactive in helping get students ready for the tests than others.</p>
