I think a 4 year college is a waste of money. When you finally graduate, what did they teach you to do? What can you actually accomplish with all the essays and stuff you did? Thats why im going to a tech school for automotive technology because im getting hands on training that is gonna help me after I graduate. I will at least have experience in something.

If you pass the exam in those classes you also get college credits saving you lots of money and a few less classes to take in college. I might end up taking them next year also.

of course it will pay off in the future if you are able to take the classes then take them but only if you aren't going to struggle if you think you will then just take regular classes trust me an a is better than a c anytime

Yes they are very much worth the effort especially if you already know what you want to possibly major in, in college.
Do it and you won't regret it!

A lot of it depends on where you rank in your class, where you want to rank in your class, where you want to go to college. AP will raise your GPA, provided you do well.

I took AP classes my senior year and colleges do look at that. Just be sure to apply yourself ...

Yes. Do it. I got out in FOUR YEARS that way.
Seriously. I know I joke about stuff, but I'm not kidding. Those credits transfer no hassle.

yes, it pays off, you can get credit for those courses and that definitely saves you some major $$$ for college.
