<p>Add me to the list of those with 2010 graduates. And, having just read through this entire thread, I am reminded again of so much to do--I had forgotten about the SAT II's. We hadn't even given a thought this summer to PSAT or SAT preparation. And, he couldn't even take any AP classes until this year at his school. Guess we'd better get a plan going. </p>
<p>We did, however, have a great summer of college visits--we did an 8-day, 6-state, 11 college visit and had a wonderful time (we made it more of a sort of 'family vacation' and included a little sightseeing and lots of fun). We flew to Philadelphia and then took trains everywhere else, ending up in Boston. (Also spending time with my oldest son who had opted to stay at his college for a job this summer instead of coming home). </p>
<p>I had been through the whole college search and application process just 2 years ago with older son, but never did many college visits. So, we really enjoyed this trip. Younger son was so excited that he had to buy a T-shirt from every single college we visited--no need to shop for clothes for school this year :-)</p>
<p>Anyway, I do have one question to ask--my son is wanting to take both AP Calculus and AP Statistics this year. Are 2 AP math classes too much--will the homework be excessive? He's very good at math, but I'm not sure about taking 2 in one year. Any advice, anyone?</p>
