Advanced Placement (AP) Prep classes

 

Advanced Placement tests are taken each May by students all over the world. These standardized exams are designed to measure how well a student has mastered the content and skills of the course. Many colleges and universities in the U.S. grant credits or advanced placement based on AP scores.

The tests combine multiple-choice questions with a free-response section in either essay or problem-solving format. The AP Grades that are reported to students, high schools, colleges, and universities in July are on AP's five-point scale:

5: Extremely well qualified
4: Well-qualified
3: Qualified
2: Possibly qualified
1: No recommendation
