Ep #11 To AP or Not to AP?
Show Notes
Homeschoolers are often in a quandary when it comes to proving their excellence as students. How do you convince the scholarship committee or the college admission board that you really are a superior candidate when your mom is the one writing your transcript? One way that students can prove their merit is by taking AP courses and doing well on AP exams. But figuring out this process as a homeschooler can be little tricky and confusing, which is why I decided to devote an entire episode to this topic. In it I discuss
· The two different AP English courses and which one to take if you want to skip college composition classes
· How to use AP Course Audit to get your course approved and why it matters
· The amount of time and money you save by scoring well on the AP exam
· A key resource that AP students can access to help them succeed in the course and on the exam
I don’t cover everything there is to know about AP English, but I did pack the essentials into this no-nonsense discussion.
