I agree. But I’ll guess the typical college baseball prospect isn’t loaded down with a lot of AP courses in high school. On the other hand based on what I read about AP courses in the Sunday paper maybe we should questions how hard they are now.
Calc, Chem, Physics, US Lit, APUSH, etc...they are plenty demanding. There are a couple of weird ones like "AP Introduction to Computer Principles" that are suspect.
You're right, though. Most kids on the local HS team aren't loaded up on AP's.
