One UVa Student's Thoughts on AP Courses

This morning's Cavalier Daily has an opinion piece about Advanced Placement and how it prepared the author for the academic challenges of UVa. I'm not going to summarize the author's thoughts because I think you should read her entire piece.

After you read it, I'd love to hear your opinion. I will come back and edit this post to add my thoughts later.
