Is it difficult?

Economics and Statistics are designed as college-level courses and will 
cover many concepts in introductory university classes.  As a result, 
expectations will be high, but tutorials are always available.  If students 
are diligent with their coursework, students can be expected to do well.

The AP courses are truly college-level experiences and culminate in 
challenging AP tests in May, which could allow students to earn credits for 
college classes.
