Junior Night: What Colleges are Looking for in 2025 (Part 1 of 2)

Thank you, Ethan and Tom. Excellent advice.

Hi Ethan, are these slides available for download?

Are the slides from the presentation available?

Do you have any webinars/videos about dual enrollment/early college?

Hello, my son studied at the school that Tom is speaking about. We found that people who do take these APs, can get credits, and not spend years re-learning what they learnt well the first time. My son went to his selective college with 14 APs and regretted the school messaging that APs do not matter. He could have applied 36. He has also spent the first year learning CS basics, Chem, and Calculus, which he had already learned in school. So I understand where Tom is coming from, and that is the official school line, but IMHO, take the AP if you have taken the course.

What a fabulous and detailed presentation. I am a college counselor, and give my new parents this same info. You folks are hurting my baseline. :) It is a good thing though, coz what is good for the student, is good for me.
