I agree with Constance,

I teach a second year course also...I would not like to be locked into
an AP curriculum.  I'm not sure of the benefits of teaching AP in High
School because I have heard many a College professor say that it
doesn't help...and I'm not sure that skipping that first course at any
particular instiution is a good idea! (my opinion)

I believe a more broad background in physics and an indepth study of
the basics that usually "washout" first year engineering students is
more important so students can cope with some of the rigors of that
first year in a "user friendly" high school environment and decide
which field (breath important) that they might be interested in...so
that they can make a good choice as to the "first major" selection for
the college bound.
