Advanced coursework FAQs
Advanced courses are designed to challenge and encourage higher-level thinking. Most advanced courses are comparable to college courses. You can develop intellectual skills and your own interests as you explore specific subject areas more deeply. Some of those skills are critical reading, data set analysis, synthesizing evidence to develop new insights and evaluating and solving problems. Your investment in any advanced course is sure to provide many returns.
Taking advanced courses provides you with additional learning opportunities. The courses give you the kind of background and preparation that will prove beneficial in your college courses or career. An advanced course exam grade shows your college or employer that you have learned college-level material and deserve credit and/or advanced placement for meeting that challenge.
Students need to be motivated to study and learn at the college level. If you are committed to participating actively in advanced courses and doing the out-of-class assignments, you have met a major prerequisite for success.
You should discuss your interest with your school counselor who will be able to advise you. The AP/IB coordinator can offer you information and guidance about all higher level courses at 兔子先生 High. Teachers and other students are sources of information as you consider higher level courses. Finally, you should also discuss the coursework with your parents.
