They are suppose to be equivalent. However, as far as difficulty, it will depend on your thirst for knowledge particular to the course content, and how well the instructor presents the information.

∙ 15y agoNot important at all, in most cases. AP is an extremely minor factor in college admissions, overshadowed by SATs and overall grades (and usually easier non-AP classes equal better overall grades) and other factors. In the job market nobody really cares what classes you took, only whether you graduated and where from.

∙ 13y agoIt depends on the person and how llong they have been doing AP classes. For ex. if this is the first time you've done AP classes then yes it would be hard, but if you have been doing AP classes for a while now then no it won't be hard

∙ 13y agoIt depends on you and how hard you r gonna work. AP Biology for me is not that easy, to get a good score in it, u should work really hard. I think it is the most difficult AP class because it has a lot of memorizing. It has a looooot of vocabulary. I can say that i study each sentence in the book and my score is not perfect. ( I have 98 in it) Even if you know all material, its hard to answer all tricky questions. I m also taking AP Calculus and its really hard too. It has a lot of formulas to memorize and u have to practice them all the time. If you want to success taking AP classes, you have to be prepared to study a lot. It is up to you.
