Advanced Placement United States Government is divided into six
general topics of study prior to the AP test in May, with a concurrent look
into the related study of economics. Each of the six study topics will be
divided according to the unit and chapter divisions of our main text.
Each unit will be studied through lecture and notes, class discussion of
data, oral reading of data, written evaluation of data, and vocabulary.
Students enrolled in this course are expected to take the Advanced Placement
examination in American Government in May. The readings will be
found in books widely used in American colleges and universities; the teaching
and study techniques have been chosen to prepare students to do excellent
work in college; the examinations and assignments are similar to those
given in the best universities.
