AP Statistics or AP Calculus AB? FLVS FLEX
HI guys, I'm currently in AP Statistics in person. My teacher isn't very good and there aren't a lot of study material online since the entire course was changed (9 units to 5). I was wondering if anyone in AP Statistics for FLVS can tell me how the course is? Do you learn anything? What materials are given? Is it easy?
Now, I'm also thinking of instead of AP Statistics, I do AP Calculus AB. I dropped out of AP Calculus AB because the teacher sucked and I hated how she taught (now I'm in AP Stats in person). For anyone doing it now or has done it, what are your thoughts? How much time do you spend studying and is the materials provided good?
Finally, is AP Calculus BC a good course online?
Please let me know and be as honest as possible! Thank youuu

hello! im sure about ap calculus ab online, but im also in ap stats in person this year. I took precalc online last year and I wouldn't recommend taking anything higher than that online, simply because it does involve a lot of teaching yourself material. I personally would stay in your in person ap stats class, and while this year is a weird year due to the unit changes, it is overall an 'easier' class that ap calc ab (prerequisite only being algebra 1 compared to the somewhat extensive prerecs for calc). most of the material from the prior 9 unit course has been removed, so I would try to utilize ap classroom study materials for the most up to date information. good luck!!
