The answer – it depends. It depends on where you want to go to college, what you plan to study in college, how much time you can commit to test prep in high school, and so much more. If you want to earn college credit while you’re still in high school, we highly recommend that you consider taking AP classes. Although these classes generally come with a heavy time commitment, the benefits far outweigh the pitfalls. Not only can you further highlight your academic strengths on your college applications, but you will also gain valuable skills needed in a collegiate environment. Plus, most colleges give you course credits for passing the end-of-year exams! It’s a win-win-win!
