at the beach Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 What's your opinion on your child taking an AP course/exam the year that changes first take place? It appears that Biology, Latin, and Spanish Lit and Culture are changing next school year. The year after Chemistry and Spanish Language and Culture. Thanks for your thoughts.:001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muttichen Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 French is new this year and two of ours are supposed to take it. We're nervous about not having released exams. We'd rather wait, but by the time exams are released and the kinks are out it will be too late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdreeves Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 My understanding is that biology will be dropping the lab references next year...dd says wait if you can, though she got through fine, even with a wonky lab situation...she did a lot of you tube viewing to prep for the lab part on the exam, which we don't recommend, but it seemed to fill in the gaps for her.

Hi, Thank you for your input. I appreciate it. The impression I'm getting as I've been looking into it more seems to be that it's not a big deal to take it the year changes go into effect and that it might even be a better way to go.
