Advanced Placement Courses
Advanced Placement Program® (AP®) courses are college-level courses offered in high school. AP courses reflect what is taught in top introductory college courses.At the end of course, students take AP Exams—standardized exams that measure how well students have mastered college-level course work. Students who do well on AP Exams can earn credit and/or placement into advanced courses in college.
Advanced Placement (AP)
29
What Are AP Courses Like?AP courses typically demand more of students than regular or honors courses. Classes tend to be fast-paced and cover more material than typical high school classes.More time, inside and outside of the classroom, is required to complete lessons, assignments and homework.Students should be prepared to work independently on summer projects.AP teachers expect their students to think critically, analyze and synthesize facts and data, weigh competing perspectives, and write clearly and persuasively.
30
Students are expected to take the AP exams in May.
--Exams are 2-3 hours--The current exam fee is $92 per exam--Exams consist of multiple choice and
free- response (essay) questions--Exams are graded on a scale of 1-5
Qualifying AP exam scores are used by some colleges to exempt students from introductory course work (**Each college/university has its own policy, which is available on the CollegeBoard website: www.collegeboard.com/ap/creditpolicy).
AP EXAMS
AP and College Admission

“” We look favorably on
“We look favorably on students who have taken AP courses. The presence of AP courses is a sign that a student has chosen to challenge him/herself.”—Admission Officerhosen to challenge him/herself.”—Admission Officer

Improves likelihood of graduating from college in four years
Increases students’ eligibility for scholarships Allow students to gain the edge in college
preparation Helps students stand out in the college admission
process The scheduling of an AP class is an important
academic decision that should be made collaboratively between teachers, parents, counselors and administrators.
AP courses should be taken if there is a sincere interest in the subject. Parents should guide their child(ren) to select AP courses that play to their strengths and interests.
