Diploma + advanced placement in Admiral Farragut Academy

Quick overview: Like Honors Courses, it is also a program of sophisticated, more in-depth study of subjects, which increases the student's chances for successful enrollment at the chosen university. AP subjects are taught in separate classes - as a rule, the student can not fully compose a curriculum from AP-directions due to the high workload and the amount of information for mastering. Therefore, teachers recommend choosing at the AP level the most priority academic disciplines and fields of knowledge - you can choose from the following list:

• Statistics;
• Biology;
• English literature;
• Macroeconomics;
• English and the basics of literary writing;
• History of the USA;
• Mathematical analysis - levels of AB and BC;
• Ecology;
• State;
• Chemistry.
