Advanced Placement
• What does AP mean?
– AP courses are rigorous, college-level
classes in a variety of subjects that give
students an opportunity to gain the skills
and experience colleges recognize.

Advanced Placement
Myths
• AP courses are
for students who
always get good
grades.
• AP courses are
too stressful.
Reality
• AP courses are for any student
who is academically prepared
and motivated to take on
college-level courses
• It's no secret that AP courses
are challenging. But in
collaborative classrooms and
for subjects you care about, the
support you receive from your
classmates and teachers can
help ease your worries, once
you know you’re committed
and willing to do the work.
AP Pathway
• Pre-AP classes are the “springboard”
into AP courses
• 9th grade is the safest time to take a
Pre-AP course.
• Colleges look for rigorous coursework
first, then ACT, then GPA
• You don’t have to take Pre-AP/AP to go
to college, but it is helpful.
