AP and Honors Classes

Hello! My name is Isabela, and I'm an international student.

Here in my country we don't have neither AP nor Honors classes, but, I want to understand what are the differences between them, because they seem to be VERY similar.

Someone could help me please?

Thanks :)

Do you have community colleges in your country? If so, then dual enrollment is a great substitute option for AP and honors!

Hello Isabela,

Honors classes are supposed to be an advanced level of learning, while AP classes are similar to college credit classes where you earn college credit in high school. Both have a weighted GPA scale of 4.5 and can also be very challenging for some people.
