Course Overview
What is the AP?
Advanced Placement Exams are standardized exams designed to measure how well a student has mastered the contents and skills of a specific AP course.
Taking AP Courses can help students demonstrate additional academic acumen, boost their chances of admission to US universities, and offer them university credits for certain courses.
There are a total of 38 AP exams offered in the Arts and Humanities and Sciences. Popular courses include English Language and Composition, US History, Psychology, and Calculus.
We offer flexible, personalized coaching for AP students in: Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Calculus, Psychology, Comparative Government and Politics, English Language and Composition, English Literature and Composition, Microeconomics and Macroeconomics.

Test Format
Each of the 38 exams has its own unique requirements; however, almost all of the exams have several things in common:
Duration and Scoring
Most exams are 2–3 hours long and scoring is done on a 1-5 scale.
Multiple-choice Questions
The first part of the exam usually consists of multiple-choice questions.
You will choose 1 of 4–5 answer choices for each question and use a pencil to bubble in your choice on your AP answer sheet.
Your total exam score on the multiple-choice section is based only on the number of questions answered correctly. You won’t receive or lose points for incorrect answers or unanswered questions.
Free-response Questions
The second part of the exam usually consists of free-response questions that require you to generate your own responses. Depending on the exam, your responses could be in the form of an essay, a solution to a problem, or a spoken response. In most cases, you’ll be writing your response in pen in the free-response exam booklet.
