<p>I see kids here saying they are taking 5 AP classes in one year. My school has a total of 3.</p>
<p>I'm taking AP US junior year, the first AP I can take, and then AP Bio and English senior year. My school advertises AP Calc AB, and I campaigned for it, but they said there weren't enough kids registered so they won't even have it.</p>
<p>My school is about the same, offers 6, and one of my thoughts is to dual enroll at the local college and to take classes on GAVS, my state virtual school.</p>
<p>If you tell in the application that you ‘pushed yourself by taking all the possible APs offered’, they’ll get the idea. You can also see if your state has a ‘Running Start’ system, which will allow you to take college level courses at a community college. It could be just a 101 class- like Intro to Political Science or Sociology, but its equivalent to an AP nevertheless.</p>
