I would investigate the factors that determine how many AP courses a student in Stevenson takes. I think that the most important questions to ask in this type of study would be about family income (quantitative data), family education (somewhat quantitative), and student life goals (qualitative). I think that family income is important to look at because i think that students who grew up in affluent households tend to be able to afford the tutoring that may be necessary in succeeding in an AP course. Family education history would be important because depending on how far your relatives took their education, students would be more or less encouraged to take challenging classes. Though life goals aren't quantitative, they would probably be the most influential factor because I think that kids who want to go very far with their education would be more encouraged to take challenging classes. I wouldn't be able to create a causal conclusion because there wouldn't be enough quantitative evidence to support my conclusion, but my results would be an interesting observational study.
