Why AP instead of taking course at colleges

<p>minhsu:</p>

<p>1) nearly every community college that I'm aware (including Montgomery County) has small classes, and are not packed with "hundreds" in a lecture hall. Ditto LACs. </p>

<p>2) One counseling office in our District puts into writing that the cc class will almost always be easier than than the high school AP. But, the GC does recommend community colleges for the B+ student, so they can earn a grade boost for the UC's. The UC's also recognize that the community colleges are usually easier, but, for obvious reasons, cannot disparage that college path. Adcoms at private schools, however.......</p>
