AP Bio Lab
Make AP Bio Lab, an AP level course, count for AP GPA credits.
Why is this important?
AP Biology is required to be a three semester course. Therefore, AP Biology is broken into two courses: AP Biology and AP Bio Lab. Since both of these courses have AP level work and prepare students for the AP exam, they should both have AP GPA credits. It is wrong for an AP class such as AP Bio Lab to not have the same AP level credits as AP Bio. Teachers have tried to fix this, but nothing has changed . The only way to fix this is for the students to demand AP credits.
