Abstract
I present a personal perspective of the current status of standard solar models, the comparison with current constraints from helioseismology and neutrino fluxes derived from available data. Results are discussed in the context of the solar abundance problem, and it is shown that current solar neutrino experiments can not discriminate between different alternatives for the solar composition available in the literature. The importance of a measurement of the neutrino fluxes from the CN-cycle is emphasized, not only because of the possibility of discerning between solar compositions, but also in connection to the formation of the planetary system.
