Ms Lange, a counselor at Sierra Vista, says, “Its definitely a good idea to challenge yourself and try an AP course in high school but also important to know your limits and your facts ahead of time. We put information on our counseling website about both AP and Dual Enrollment courses so students can research the benefits of both ahead of time. … From there hopefully they will be able to make an educated decision as to whether AP courses are the appropriate level of course for them.”
