What Current Students Say...

I love doing the labs and learning how the equations apply in a real scenario.

Many students take AP Chemistry to prepare for college, potentially earn college credit, and they have a career-related interest.

Some common challenges include: vocabulary/terms and balancing time with other commitments (academic or extracurricular).

Advice to Future Students?

• Stay on top of your work and always ask for help when you are confused.

• Do all the practice problems that are provided even if they aren't due to fully understand.
