[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If we compare the difficulty of AP Statistics vs AP calculus it’s worth looking at the score distributions: AP Calculus AB, 270000 take it, 55000 get a 5 AP Calculus BC, 120000 take it, 50000 get a 5 AP Statistics, 220000 take it, 32000 get a 5 https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/media/pdf/ap-score-distributions-by-subject-2022.pdf It’s significantly harder to get a 5 in Statistics, and [b]it’s not because weaker students take i[/b]t. [/quote] That is EXACTLY why. :roll: [/quote] +1 HS math teacher here. Kids who find Honors Precalc too challenging typically jump off the calculus train the next year and take AP Statistics because they think it’ll be “easier” than continuing with Calculus. The stronger math students stay in calculus. And the strongest math students manage to double up to fit in AP Statistics (often in 10th grade), so a lot of those 5s are kids who will also take Calculus.[/quote]
