AP Computer Science A is a traditional coding course focused on Java programming, with about 50% of students scoring a 4 or 5 on the exam. In contrast, AP Computer Science Principles covers broader computer science concepts, with only about a third of students achieving a 4 or 5. I recommend that students in grades 10 to 12 consider taking these courses, and I emphasize the importance of prior algebra knowledge. Please reach out if you have any questions about the courses or prerequisites."}
