Comparing B & C
B = algebra-based courseC = calculus-based courseB offers credit for 108-109 type
coursesC offers college credit for 110-
111 type courses3 = qualified; 4 = well qualified;
5= extremely well qualified

AP Exams
B exam = 3 hours long, equally divided between 70 MC questions (no calculator allowed) and 7 free-response questions (calculator allowed)
C exam = two 90-minutes parts, one mechanics and one E&M; separate grades for each; second exam is optional; each section split between 35 MC questions (no calculators) and 3 free-response (calculators allowed)

When to Teach AP Physics
After an introductory course, unless in an extremely gifted situation. AP typically uses the “college model” of instruction.
Only when you as an instructor are ready.
Requires program certification from AP.
