do the titles 'pre-ap' and 'honors' mean the same thing?

<p>title............</p>

<p>Depends on the school where you're taking the class</p>

<p>At my school they have different meanings, although I could see that at some schools they may be one and the same. </p>

<p>Colleges may not know the difference, unless your guidance counselor puts it in your letter (?)</p>

<p>Depends on the school, definitely.</p>

<p>At our school, we don't even have "pre-AP." Unfortunately, there is this huge gap of difficulty between honors and AP...There's no middle ground, and I think that forces a lot of people into uncomfortable situations; either too much work, or not enough learning.</p>

<p>yanners i feel the same way
we have GT but only when there is no AP
like freshman year you can take english 1 GT because there is obviously no AP</p>

<p>honors is total BS
AP can be killer
it sucks!</p>

<p>My school has three levels:
Honors - highest (this is called "AP" if you happen to take a certain College Board test at the end)
Curriculum I - middle
Curriculum II - lower</p>

<p>A neighboring school also has three levels:
AP - highest
Honors - middle
Regular - lower</p>

<p>An Honors class at their school is comparable to a curriculum I class at my school. So names can be very misleading. But hopefully in the School Report form your school has indicated what they use and colleges will understand that.</p>

<p>At our school, It's:</p>

<p>AP
Honors
College Prep(CP) Class (i.e. Community College Prep class) - Being the lowest level class</p>

<p>So many names, I'm sure your GC can clear it up. If not, pre-AP sounds pretty impressive, even though at first it was laughable that a school would name a perfectly good class after the CollegeBoard money making scheme.</p>

<p>do community college classes count as AP or nonAP?</p>

<p>CC classes are non-AP. You can take the test if you would like in May, but they do not fall under that heading.</p>
