Advanced Placement
Courses
Bobbie Knotts
Guidance Counselor - Liberty High School
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.
29
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 freeresponse (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).


Colleges rank “Grades in
college prep courses” and
“Strength of curriculum” as
the top two factors in the
admission decision.*
85% of selective colleges
and universities report that
a student’s AP experience
favorably impacts admission
decisions.**
“” 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

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.
