Course rigor is relative to your school, so it doesn’t matter if other people have different opportunities because they go to different schools.
There is an actual Pre-AP [url=<a href=“Supporting Students from Day One to Exam Day – AP Central | College Board”>Early Access to AP – AP Central | College Board]program[/url</a>], but schools sometimes give courses that label even if they don’t relate to the College Board.
The College Board makes 34 AP exams right now. </p>
<p>When you’re thinking about what AP classes to take, you should also think about which exams you can get credit for at the colleges you want to apply to. Taking AP exams now can help you avoid classes (distribution requirements) you’re not interested in once you actually get to college.</p>
