Will not having AP classes on my transcript hurt my chances of getting into a good college?

Hey guys, so my school doesn't offer any AP classes and I'm kinda stressed about how that'll look on my college applications. I'm worried that colleges will think I didn't try hard enough or something. Is this going to hurt my chances of getting into a good college? What can I do to make up for it? Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Colleges understand not all schools offer AP classes. Focus on taking the most challenging courses available and excelling in them. You can also consider dual enrollment at a local community college to show your academic commitment.
