AP Confusion?

<p>Hey guys :) I have a question about AP and their restrictions and all that good stuff.</p>

<p>I took regular World History in 9th grade. In 10th grade, I did APUSH.</p>

<p>Now, for 11th grade, I was rejected out of AP European History (the AP classes are all online). Is it possible for me to take AP World History this year, even though I took the regular version of it in my freshman year? Would colleges still allow credit for both?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Yes, you can. The “AP” label makes it a new class.</p>

<p>At my school, AP Euro was on the schedule as “AP European History/World Civ.” I took World Civ in 10th grade, but EHAP in 11th because it was the first year it was offered.</p>

<p>Got to tell you, most colleges don’t give credit or just elective credit for world history. Unless you need it as a history I would consider another AP class.</p>

Sorry; I don’t mean college credit. I was asking if they would still consider it high school credit.</p>

<p>Oh, if you mean if you’re allowed to take both Honors World History and AP World History?</p>

<p>Of course. That’s what I did - I took Honors World History my freshman year and AP World History my sophomore year. Granted - I could have done without the Honors World History because AP World is plenty easy enough, but both classes still count on my transcript. In fact, most people take the regular/honors version of a class before the AP version of the class (ex., you take Honors Chemistry and then go on to take AP Chemistry; rarely do you jump right into AP Chemistry).</p>

<p>I understand that, I’m just saying for your future college you might want to consider what you get credit for.</p>

<p>Of course. It’s the same as taking Bio Honors as a freshman and AP Bio as a junior, which many kids do.</p>
