Based on my own experiences and seeing my cousins who just graduated HS this year, students taking AP classes tend to hang out with each other.[/quote]
As an AP teacher I can assure you this is correct for most students, not just your cousins. Oftentimes AP kids will play the same sports together and tend to date other AP kids.
When my own kids are old enough for high school I’ll want them to be in AP classes just so they’ll hopefully have a better peer group.
