In today's extremely competitive educational "world" students have been piling on AP classes in order to prepare and make their application stand out from other students when applying to prestigious universities and post secondary schools. I want to see if taking on all these rigorous courses have more positives than negatives, both physically and mentally, not to mention inside and outside of the classroom. In addition to this I want to know if it is the students who are the ones challenging themselves or if it is parental pressure forcing kids to take on multiple AP classes. The issue i will be addressing is , " should there be a limit to the amount of AP classes and if so what should it be" IF not , " what programs are out there to help kids who are struggling or taking on multiple AP classes." The overarching theme of the issue and of my topic I want to address in my action plan , "Should student be allowed to take as many AP classes as they want?' I believe that student should be allowed to take as many classes as they would like but there needs to be designated programs for each ap class that help students with HW and studying.
