4. Designed for students that want to take more science classes, especially AP Biology, AP Chemistry, and AP Physics.
Not designed for students who just want the “honors” designation.
I assume kids in the honors class have a stronger math background and I will move much faster than regular chemistry. I recommend they are in Algebra 2 or Higher.
Does not help GPA at all. Still counts as a 4pt class.
