AP Exam
This online course does not include the AP exam. If the student's local school does not coordinate AP exams, the student should call AP Central's customer service (1.888.255.5427, then 0) to obtain contact information for coordinators at nearby schools willing to coordinate exams for non-enrolled students. Students will then need to call those coordinators (by early March) to determine if their AP subject exam will be offered (not all coordinating schools offer all possible AP exams). Students should expect to pay all associated exam fees.

Holden Village Community School Student - 12/07/07 
I have been enjoying the course. However, it becomes quite stressful at timed due to where I am located and how remote it is here. To put is simply, the internet doesn't always work 100% of the time. I like Joe Miller's study videos MUCH better than Shana Calaway's lesson studies.
It is harder to learn on an online class because you have to have enough self discipline to make yourself learn the curriculum.
My three favorite things about the AP Calculus AP Apex course is first of all the set-up of the course. It is very organized and easy to use. Second is that you can watch lesson study videos as many times as you need, or you can rewind and watch a part again, whereas in real life you can not do that. My third favorite thing about this course is that I can have a calendar that lists out all the homework and when it is due. It helps with time management and organization.
There are also parts that are my least favorite. Even though I can rewind study videos, it is kind of hard to get help. I usually need someone to explain something to me in person and help me work things out. Second of all, I don't like that it has been taking a lot of my time and it has been giving me a lot of stress. I guess I just need to manage my time better than I have been.
Over all this AP Calculus AB course has been good.
