Thereby helping students to be exempted from equivalent subject credits at the first semester at the University.
At WASS, the program will be applied to students in Grades 11, 12 in both the International and Bilingual programs. Outstanding Year 10 students will be considered enrolling in the AP course.
AP subjects will be implemented at WASS including 7 main subjects:
- Chemistry
- Physics
- Calculus AB
- English Language & Composition
- Psychology
- Macroeconomics
- Computer Science
AP Courses are advanced, college-level courses. Students must put in effort and allocate a certain amount of time to be able to complete assignments.
When enrolling in AP courses, students will have to complete both classroom assignments and AP course assignments. After completing any AP course, students also have a very solid foundation of knowledge, which can be a stepping stone for the university process later. Successful completion of AP courses and high scores on AP exams also make your resume stand out when applying to top universities.
