The AP Program
 Created in 1955 by the
  Collegeboard, the same
  organization who administers
  the SAT Reasoning Test.
 Designed to “Offer standardized
  courses to high school students
  generally recognized to be
  equivalent to undergraduate
  courses in college.”
Benefits of AP classes
 Scholarships – 31% of
  universities consider students’
  AP coursework when
  determining scholarship
  distribution.
 Weighted GPA – AP grades are
  recorded on a curve, allowing
  students to transcend a 4.0
  GPA.
Benefits of AP classes
 Class rank – Taking and
 succeeding in multiple AP
 classes can significantly
 increase one’s GPA, raising
 their class rank, which is an
 extremely important
 component in admissions
 for competitive universities
 and scholarships.
AP Exams
 Students who complete a
  year-long AP class take a
  corresponding AP exam.
 These culminating,
  standardized exams are
  administered by the
  CollegeBoard.
 Scoring is scaled from 1 to 5.
 A score of 3 typically yields
  some college credit.

     Chemistry             3         3 credits from CHEM 151

 English Lang/Comp         4          3 credits from ENG 100

    Calculus AB            5         4 credits for MATH 241
How “hard” are AP classes?
 AP classes are generally
  more demanding and
  time-consuming than non-
  AP classes.
 AP course curricula are
  designed to mirror those of
  actual undergraduate
  courses, so completing
  more AP classes will more
  aptly prepare students for
  college.

      AP Exams.
How “hard” are AP Exams?
 AP exams are designed to
  emulate those of college final
  exams.
 AP exams are challenging and
  thorough, as they entail virtually
  all content taught in the course.
 Because college courses put a
  stronger emphasis on
  culminating tests, AP exams are
  great preparation for collegiate
  atmospheres.

Is that all? What if I am not challenged?
 You are allowed to take an
  AP exam without actually
  taking the course.
 Colleges award college credit
  regardless of whether or not
  you take a high school
  course.
 You can either “self-study” or
  take online courses.
 Neither affect your high
  school GPA.
Is that all? What if I am not challenged?
 Recommended AP
    Exams for self-study:
   Calculus BC
   Environmental Science
   Psychology
   Statistics
   US Government and
    Politics
Is that all? What if I am not challenged?
 Contact testing
  coordinators of other
  schools as early as possible.
 Start studying at least 6
  weeks in advance.
 Use prep books (e.g.
  Barron, Princeton Review,
  Kaplan)

  • 12. The AP Program  Created in 1955 by the Collegeboard, the same organization who administers the SAT Reasoning Test.  Designed to “Offer standardized courses to high school students generally recognized to be equivalent to undergraduate courses in college.”
  • 13. Benefits of AP classes  Scholarships – 31% of universities consider students’ AP coursework when determining scholarship distribution.  Weighted GPA – AP grades are recorded on a curve, allowing students to transcend a 4.0 GPA.
  • 14. Benefits of AP classes  Class rank – Taking and succeeding in multiple AP classes can significantly increase one’s GPA, raising their class rank, which is an extremely important component in admissions for competitive universities and scholarships.
  • 15. AP Exams  Students who complete a year-long AP class take a corresponding AP exam.  These culminating, standardized exams are administered by the CollegeBoard.  Scoring is scaled from 1 to 5.  A score of 3 typically yields some college credit.
  • 16. AP Exam Score Credits Exam Minimum Score UH Manoa Credit Biology 4 6 credits for BIOL 171 & 172 (w/ waiver from labs) Chemistry 3 3 credits from CHEM 151 English Lang/Comp 4 3 credits from ENG 100 English Lit/Comp 4 3 credits from ENG 100 European History 4 6 credits from HIST 231 Calculus AB 5 4 credits for MATH 241
  • 17. How “hard” are AP classes?  AP classes are generally more demanding and time-consuming than non- AP classes.  AP course curricula are designed to mirror those of actual undergraduate courses, so completing more AP classes will more aptly prepare students for college.
  • 18. AP classes and college graduation 4-Year graduation (%) 5-Year Graduation (%) Students with no involvement in AP 40.4 52.3 classes Students who had completed at least 2 AP 63.2 77.2 classes and Passed AP Exams.
  • 19. How “hard” are AP Exams?  AP exams are designed to emulate those of college final exams.  AP exams are challenging and thorough, as they entail virtually all content taught in the course.  Because college courses put a stronger emphasis on culminating tests, AP exams are great preparation for collegiate atmospheres.

  • 31. Is that all? What if I am not challenged?  Contact testing coordinators of other schools as early as possible.  Start studying at least 6 weeks in advance.  Use prep books (e.g. Barron, Princeton Review, Kaplan)
