AP Chem difficulty

<p>I hear conflicting stories about AP Chem. My D says that all her friends thought it was by far the hardest AP. What do you think? Also, any idea what percentage of scores kids get each year?</p>

<p>I ask, because D2 wants to take it and D1 says NOOOO.</p>

<p>I took it last year, didn’t seem that difficult but our class wasn’t prepared. IMO I thought AP Physics C was more advanced.</p>

<p>Wikipedia has AP Chem score distributions:
[Advanced</a> Placement Chemistry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia](<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Placement_Chemistry]Advanced”>AP Chemistry - Wikipedia)</p>

<p>I thought the class was incredibly difficult, but the AP exam was relatively easy. Of course, experiences will vary according to the type of student, how rigorous the class is, etc.</p>
