Should my son accept to be in honor's classes or not ?

I'm 16, going to be a junior next year in AP classes and honestly if the teachers are suggesting him to be in the classes he sure as hell can handle them. Teachers evaluate really well to make sure that whatever class they're recommending for the student will help the student be successful. Honors and AP classes look great on college applications and if he goes through the honors classes and continues into AP junior and senior year you can save a lot of money by taking a test to transfer the AP credits into college credit hours. If you're worried about it, maybe only do 1 or 2 of the classes, but to get recommended for 3 honors classes and not take any of them would be looked at as either foolish or lazy by most teachers and college admission guides.\\edit// AND teachers are always willing to give students help where it's needed. I don't know how hard your son's school is, but usually honors classes are a challenge...but a nice challenge. If his lowest grade is a 94 he should definitely be taking honors classes.
