what is the difference between AP and college prep?
Q. In an AP class, you get college credit, right? But what about College Prep? does that give you college credit as well?

A. I believe AP classes are better than College Prep. Their harder and not as easy. So like AP classes gives you college credits and I believe College Prep doesn't. I think so. I asked my guidance council about this once.

How do I nail an interview for a college prep program?

Is going to a college prep high school really more beneficial then a normal high school?
Q. Well, Im beginning high school next year and my mom is thinking about sending me to a college prep school. The only problem is I dont want to leave all the friends I have now (well, not very many because Im not a dirty little skank like everyone else, but a few of my friends, :]) unless I know it will really be worth it. So, normal high school vs. college prep high school? Any past experience? Thankss :]

A. it rlly makes no difference to be honest. normal high school offers AP [advance placement] courses or IB courses that are college-level. i know people who have gone to normal high schools and have ended up in harvard, cornell and other prestigious colleges. it's your choice don't let your mom decide.

A. You should probably consider your parents' budget first because that will most likely dictate where you end up going. Culver Academy in Indiana is really prestigious and has a beautiful campus. They have a great summer program so you could test it out before committing to four years there.

Difference between college prep courses and AP courses?
Q. My college admission to SJSU says "We will review all final transcripts to verify that you have maintained your eligibility in accordance with CSU admission standards, including the completion of your senior year with "C-" or better grades in all of your college prep courses." I googled up 'college prep courses' and it said college prep courses were classified as regular classes, not AP or honors. Is that correct? Because I got a D+ in AP Calculus only in my first semester. Thanks.
Asked by BlueTiger - Wed Jul 8 04:49:29 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Generally speaking, AP classes are considered as "college prep" courses. Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, and honors classes are all designed to prepare students for college level work. Courses that would be considered non-college prep classes would be physical education, art, music, autoshop, metalshop, etc. Basically, college prep classes are academic classes that you take to prepare you for university. If you are concerned about SJSU's policy on college prep courses, I suggest you contact the admissions office directly. Hope this helps!

How can I help my children with their school and college prep?
