Hey fellow students, I'm wanting to take some online AP courses this year to boost my transcript. What online platforms or programs have you found with the best AP courses? Thanks for any help you can provide!
Hey there! It's great that you're seeking to challenge yourself academically by taking additional online AP courses. While there are several online platforms that offer AP courses, here are a few that have a solid reputation:
1. AP Classroom: The College Board itself offers AP Classroom, an online platform with lessons, assessments, and resources for AP courses. While it's technically designed as a supplementary tool for in-person courses, you could still use it for self-studying.
2. Khan Academy: Khan Academy is another popular platform and provides free online resources and video lessons for numerous AP subjects. Although they are not complete AP courses, these resources can help you study at your own pace and achieve a good understanding of the subject matter.
3. edX: edX is a platform that partners with universities and organizations to offer various courses, including several AP courses. Although some classes may require payment for full access to all course materials, they are generally of high quality and led by experienced instructors.
4. Florida Virtual School (FLVS): FLVS is an accredited, public online learning platform that offers multiple AP courses. Non-Florida residents can also take courses through FLVS with a tuition fee. The courses are taught by experienced and certified teachers, ensuring a high-quality learning experience.
Make sure you also remember to check with your high school counselor to see if they have any recommendations for online AP courses or if your school has any partnerships with online course providers. Good luck, and happy studying!
