What Current Students Say...

I am learning about the world around me and how I impact it/how it impacts me.

Many students take APES to potentially earn college credit, and they have a career-related interest.

Some common challenges include: vocabulary/terms, and sometimes balancing time with other commitments (academic or extracurricular), or the reading and math requirements.

Advice to Future Students?

• Use the study tools and textbook!

• Talk with your peers about the content - they have interesting points.

What Else You Should Know...

Students should be able to do unit conversions and work with percentages

It is helpful to have some basic Biology/Chemistry understanding, but not required

Students should be willing and able to use available time to complete tasks independently in small groups
