About the Class
About the Class
AP Psychology is a overview of psychology, the equivalent of Psych 101 in college. We cover topics such as human development, consciousness, motivation, and the influence of biology on behavior. Since you can receive college credit, this class is more rigorous than your standard high school course. Vocabulary is a major component of this course, so make sure you study the terms of each unit diligently. If you intend on taking the AP exam in May, it is essential that you frequently review the content. The purchase of a study aid and/or the creation of a study group is advised. Everything we do is important.
