WHAT ARE AP COURSES?

Advanced Placement (AP) courses are rigorous, college-level courses and assessments offered in US high schools. Administered by the College Board, they have now replaced the SAT Subject Tests for college applications. Doing well on AP courses can translate to college credit in US and Canadian universities.

AP courses are structured to be self-study material with a standardized exam offered once a year. As such many high schools might not offer the correct guidance or teaching for AP courses.

Taking online AP courses with a good teacher will help students with their schoolwork while ensuring they score well in the exams. A good score demonstrates a student’s ability to study a rigorous curriculum and also ensures college credit.

WHY TAKE AN AP COURSE?

Taking AP classes and exams can give students a head start in high school and college. By participating, students can:


Develop Essential Skills and Confidence

AP courses equip students with critical time management and study skills that are vital for college and career success. They delve deeper into subjects of interest, enhancing creativity and problem-solving abilities to overcome academic challenges.


Impress Colleges

Enrolling in AP courses demonstrates to colleges that students are committed to their education and ready to take on rigorous academic challenges. In fact, 85% of selective colleges and universities indicate that a student’s AP experience positively influences admission decisions.


Excel in College

Studies show that students who score a 2 on their AP Exams are prepared for college-level work. Those who score a 3 or higher typically achieve greater academic success and have higher graduation rates than their peers who did not take AP courses. Additionally, 75% of AP students entering a four-year college start with some AP credit.


Save Time and Money in College

Research indicates that students who take AP courses and exams are significantly more likely to graduate on time, reducing the cost of additional tuition. Most colleges and universities across the country offer college credit, advanced placement, or both for qualifying AP Exam scores, allowing students to fulfill graduation requirements early or skip introductory and general education courses.
