Is taking APs worth it for international students?

Hi Everyone,

I am an 11th grade student from India, and I have always wondered whether I should take any AP exams because our 11th and 12th grade syllabuses are very similar to what is taught in the APs. Some of the content was even taught during 10th grade, so is it necessary for me to take APs? Will it matter while I apply to colleges because my own board's curriculum is vast?
