AP Sciences Information Sheet
First a reminder: AP Sciences, like all AP classes, are college level courses. There is no bluffing your way through. As such, they require students to a) have prerequisite knowledge and b) have demonstrated a work ethic consistent with college success. A middling student will be better served by developing his foundational knowledge in regular classes, rather than in AP courses.
