Every school year, Al-Noor School offers various Advanced Placement® courses based on student demand and teacher availability.  An AP (Advanced Placement® course) is a college-level course that students take in high school and concludes with an AP® exam in May.  It requires a higher level of commitment to studying and a deeper understanding of the subjects.  Typically, 9th and 10th grade students may take 1 Advanced Placement® course in a school year.  Juniors and seniors may take more than one. Remember, it's the students' responsibility to balance their course workload with all the other commitments.  Here are some benefits of completing an Advanced Placement® course:

1. Studying a subject in depth could give new insights and even put you on the path to a career

2. An opportunity to develop college skills, time management, critical thinking, and scholarly writing

3. An AP® score could transfer to college credits and allow you to graduate faster from college

4. “AP®” on your high school transcript shows colleges you’ve tackled college-level work
