Hello all,

MY DS10 son has the opportunity to take either AP Statistics or AP Computer Science next year through his school. He will also be taking Pre-Calculus. Two questions: 1) Which of the two courses should he take? and 2) The school tells me that although DS10 will be allowed to take the AP exams, they will not be able to put 'AP' as part of the class description on his transcript. It will say either 'advanced' computer science or advanced Statistics. The school says it is a 'College Board' thing...Any idea as to why? I initially said that was fine (as long as he take the exam(s). Am I missing something? The only other place that I know of that allows middle schoolers to take AP classes is Northwestern's CTD. Thanks!
