Advanced Placement
The Advanced Placement Program enables qualified and motivated high school students to take college-level courses and exams and to earn college credit or placement while still in high school. It prepares students for intermediate and advanced college courses by making demands upon them equivalent to those made by full-year introductory college courses. AP classes are more challenging and stimulating, but they take more time and require more work.
Most colleges and universities in the United States, as well as colleges and universities in more than 30 other countries, have an AP policy granting incoming students credit, placement, or both on the basis of AP Exams that are given in May each year. This can save significant tuition expense in a student’s first year at college.
We offer the following Advanced Placement courses at Mekeel Christian and plan to add more in the future:
- United States History
- United States Government & Politics
- English Literature and Composition
- Calculus AB
- Chemistry
- Physics B
