credit course
ACCP course is the official credit course of American universities, and credits can be directly included in the official transcripts of universities and recognized by American universities.
AP course is a derivative course of the third-party institutional examination, and the test score must be above 4 to obtain the credit certificate, and the credit cannot be included in the university transcript.
Curriculum system
ACCP's curriculum system adopts the division mode of colleges and majors, which is consistent with universities, so that students can plan their future majors and careers more clearly and understand the learning mode of universities first.
The curriculum system of AP course is exam-oriented. In order to get better grades, students tend to avoid the important subjects and neglect the future major direction, which is not conducive to the major selection and planning of universities.
teacher
ACCP courses are taught by teachers certified by St. Louis University, and are taught according to the prescribed knowledge points. The teaching process and examination are completed under the supervision and examination of the school.
On the other hand, the level of AP teachers is uneven, there is no standard syllabus, lack of academic rigor, lack of supervision in the teaching process, and the teaching quality cannot be guaranteed.
Examination evaluation
ACCP course adopts process evaluation system, with three exams every year, and the usual homework is included in the final grade, which can better reflect the real level of students.
The AP course only has one exam opportunity every year, without reference to the usual grades.
