College Now: 12th grader 一个值得考虑的选项？

收到学区的信，不知道这个college now 有什么利弊，大家能帮忙分析一下？

有些情况适合我们：

1. need only Economics/US Government and the 4th year of English to graduate

2. 所有Science和math学校AP都修或考完了，也要考虑12th修什么

问题是不增加12th的压力下，这个college now有一丁点好处吗？

JUNIORS:  Would you like to earn one year of college credits duiring your senior year without taking AP tests and at 1/10 of the cost of the same year at a UC?  If so, the new COLLEGE NOW might be the program for you.

YOU have been pre-selected as ELIGIBLE for the new COLLEGE NOW program, needing only Economics/US Government and the 4th year of English to graduate after completing the current semester (no summer). Attached is the new COLLEGE NOW brochure that you will also receive from a YYY student clerk in period 1, 2, or 3 before this Friday.

COLLEGE NOW has CHANGED, but some of the original program is still here: an academic program for incoming 12th grade students to take classes at BOTH XXX College & YYY.  Students must be extremely mature and independent, requiring minimal guidance. NO MINIMUM GPA, application, interview, teacher evaluations--complete online questionnaire & be in a lottery to be one of the (10) YYY juniors selected.

• 最近几年弯曲各学区纷纷推出类似项目，目的是什么？由于太新，研究不出所以然，我们去年还是申请进去的。这半年，感觉CC的课比AP轻松 -Guinevere- ♀ (0 bytes) () 01/22/2018 postreply 17:04:30

• college now的counselor比高中的好？ -wzg69- ♂ (61 bytes) () 01/22/2018 postreply 21:05:30

• 还是自己高中counselor更了解学生在本校的ranking，严重怀疑CC的counselor的推荐信能有啥用，还不如大学教授 -dengGGdeng- ♀ (0 bytes) () 01/29/2018 postreply 14:21:39

• 为啥自己提前考AP bio呢？既然学校offer， 就等着在学校考不是更好。先有AP5分，后上AP课，有点怪誒 -dengGGdeng- ♀ (0 bytes) () 01/29/2018 postreply 14:26:15
