[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]AP Precalc [/b]is new for 2023-24. That means that your kid will be able to take precalc as a junior and have a math AP score for college apps. Kids applying this year didn’t have that option. [/quote] This is bizarre. Lots of colleges consider precalc remedial, so they don’t offer it for credit. [/quote] It’s not for credit, it’s for the score. Taking AP Precalc junior year gives you a math score to put on your application even if you don’t or can’t submit your SAT. [/quote] AP Precalc exam is mostly Algebra 2 topics, majority of kids taking the exam are expected to be seniors, and it is designed for all students (honors and non-honors) so an AP Precalc score will be different from other AP scores. LCPS does not allow kids to take AP Precalc if they're headed to Calc BC because it doesn't prepare them well enough; those kids will take Math Analysis instead. [/quote]
