Advanced Placement Chemistry is a lab-oriented second-year course designed to better prepare students who anticipate careers in science, medicine, engineering, or science related fields. AP Chemistry is also appropriate for students who hope to test out of chemistry to pursue other interests in college. Subject matter concentrates on topics usually covered in typical college freshman chemistry courses, such as bonding, equilibrium, kinetics, acids and bases, electrochemistry, and analysis. Satisfactory scores on the national exam qualify students for advanced placement or credit in chemistry at college.
