    Just a question out of curiosity. Is there some kind of standardized test used in AP classes?

    Because I can just see a situation where they say they’re going to allow topics on sexuality, but the teachers just magically don’t have enough time in the year to cover everything, so some chapters just have to be skipped. For efficiency reasons, of course.

      At the end of the school year, yes, there is a standardized nationwide AP test for every AP class.

      yeah, that’s the main reason it looked like it was getting banned in the first place. don’t say gay got extended thru 12th grade, which would mean that the gender and sexuality stuff couldn’t be taught in the class, but the ap test is standardized, so they couldn’t just take out the gender and sexuality stuff

      I think Florida teachers are generally pro-education so would want to teach the real class.
