AP Exams are given each year in May. Students who earn a qualifying score on an AP Exam are typically eligible , in college, to receive credit, placement into advanced courses, or both. Every aspect of AP course and exam development is the result of collaboration between AP teachers and college faculty. They work together to develop AP courses and exams, set scoring standards, and score the exams. College faculty review every AP teacher’s course syllabus  \nThe AP Program offers four physics courses:  \nAP Physics 1 : Algebra-Based is a full-year course that is the equivalent of a first-semester introductory college course in algebrabased physics.  \nAP Physics 2: Algebra-Based is a full-year course, equivalent to a second-semester introductory college course in physics.  \nAP Physics C: Mechanics is a half-year course equivalent to a semester-long, introductory calculus-based college course.  \nAP Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism, a half-year course following Physics C: Mechanics, is equivalent to a semester-long, introductory calculus-based college course.  \nAP Physics 1 is an algebra-based, introductory college-level physics course. Students cultivate their understanding of physics through inquiry-based investigations as they explore these topics: kinematics, dynamics, circular motion and gravitation, energy, momentum, simple harmonic motion, torque and rotational motion.  \nPREREQUISITES  \nStudents should have completed Geometry and be concurrently taking Algebra II or an equivalent course. Although the Physics 1 course includes basic use of trigonometric functions, this understanding can be gained either in the concurrent math course or in the AP Physics 1 course itself.  \nLABORATORY REQUIREMENT  \nThis course requires that 25% of instructional time be spent in hands-on laboratory work, with an emphasis on inquiry-based investigations that provide students with opportunities to demonstrate the foundational physics principles and apply the science practices. Colleges may require students to present their laboratory materials from AP science courses before granting college credit for laboratory work, so students are encouraged to retain their notebooks, reports, and other materials.  \nThe course content is organized into seven commonly taught units, which have been arranged in the following suggested, logical sequence:  \n■ Unit 1: Kinematics  \n■ Unit 2: Dynamics  \n■ Unit 3: Circular Motion and Gravitation  \n■ Unit 4: Energy  \n■ Unit 5: Momentum  \n■ Unit 6: Simple Harmonic Motion  \n■ Unit 7: Torque and Rotational Motion  \nEach unit is broken down into teachable segments called topics. In addition, the following big ideas serve as the foundation of the course, enabling students to create meaningful connections among concepts and develop deeper conceptual understanding:  \n■ Systems: Objects and systems have properties such as mass and charge.  \n■ Fields: Fields existing in space can be used to explain interactions.  \n■ Force Interactions: The interactions of an object with other objects can be described by forces.  \n■ Change: Interactions between systems can result in changes in those systems.  \n■ Conservation: Changes that occur as a result of interactions are constrained by conservation laws.  \nThe following science practices describe what skills students should develop during the course:  \n■ Modeling: Use representations and models to communicate scientific phenomena and solve scientific problems.  \n■ Mathematical Routines: Use mathematics appropriately.  \n■ Scientific Questioning: Engage in scientific questioning to extend thinking or guide investigations.  \n■ Experimental Methods: Plan and implement data collection strategies in relation to a particular scientific question.
