In this episode, Lisa and Julie discuss:

  • Understanding your student’s goals before enrolling in Advanced Placement (AP) or Dual Enrollment (DE) courses.
  • Why your teen’s AP exam score matters more to colleges than their grade in the AP class.
  • How to know what your student’s desired colleges will accept for college credit.
  • Exploring academic, college major, and career interests through DE and AP courses.

Key Takeaways:

  • AP courses are standardized nationally, and they have a set curriculum as designated by the College Board. DE courses vary depending on where you live and how the DE course is being conducted.
  • Some selective colleges and universities do not grant credit for AP or DE courses but recognize them as preparation for college.
  • AP exams have a standard cost for taking the exam. DE course costs vary by state.
  • Admissions officers will consider what a student chooses to take with what choices are available to them. Your student will not be penalized if their high school has limited AP and DE choices.

“The key is knowing what your school district offers, sanctions, and has available to you.” – Julie Spak
