Second, take a fancy to AP courses: There are not many AP courses in many famous schools in the United States, but every school can take AP exams, because some difficult courses in famous American schools have been recognized by famous schools such as Ivy League universities in the United States, and the difficulty is much more difficult than AP courses. So don't just look at how many AP courses there are in American high schools as the criteria for choosing American private high schools. At the same time, most high schools in the United States have requirements for learning AP courses. You can't just study and take exams.

Location: High schools on the east and west coasts of the United States attract many students and parents, but there are also some famous schools in central or southern America. They send many students to famous American schools every year, and they are equally excellent. At the same time, due to the superior geographical location, the application competition between the east and west coasts is very fierce, so we should adjust our thinking when choosing.

4. Boys' schools and girls' schools: There is no essential difference between single-sex schools and coeducational schools. Is it just for the social cognition of men or women, or is it just because of parents? Rest assured? These factors. For example, just because your son enters a boys' school doesn't mean he is far away from girls. The school arranges parties with nearby girls' schools every week.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) schools with religious background: In the United States, there are a large number of schools with religious backgrounds, such as Christianity, Catholicism, Quakers and Lutheranism, and they donate money to build schools. Many parents are also worried that my children will be forced to believe in religion after attending religious schools. This will never happen. We once visited a Christian school, where only 25% of the students have Christian beliefs. Of course, religious schools often arrange religious classes every week, and even some religious classes count as credits, but students and parents don't have to worry that religious classes will instill religious beliefs. In fact, the school inspires students to become noble people through such religious classes.
