EUROPEAN HISTORY AP (Advanced Placement)
GRADE 10
10 CREDITS YEAR

PREREQUISITE: Students taking European History AP
will be entered with the expectation that they will be
moving into other AP or IB classes in the eleventh and
twelfth grade years. Students may be subjected to a
qualifying exam during their ninth grade year, and several
minimal criteria (such as reading scores) will be
considered for acceptance into this course.

The AP European history course is designed to provide
students with analytical, factual, and writing skills which
relate to the development of Europe covering the period
from the Renaissance through current day. Very intense
reading and writing will be required in this year-long
college preparatory class. This course leads to an
optional Advanced Placement history test in May. College
credit is possible if the test is passed. This course fulfills
the World History requirement. (UC/CSU* “G”
