AP Physics and AP Calculus AB Review/Preview Camp

  • Students enrolled in AP Physics I or AP Calculus AB courses for the 2024-25 school year are invited to attend a math review and preview camp. This camp, led by our AP teachers, is designed to solidify your understanding of mathematical concepts in algebra, pre-calculus, and geometry, which are essential for your success in AP classes. The camps will occur at West Potomac High School from July 29 to August 2, 2024. Sessions will be held from 9:00 a.m. to noon each day. Transportation will be provided to and from West Potomac daily to your nearest neighborhood school (Sandburg, Bucknell, Groveton, and Hybla Valley).

Are the Official Tests Still Relevant?

Test optional does not mean test blind! Check the websites of your favored colleges to see their admissions policy and check the scholarship pages to see if test scores are used for admissions, to select scholarship recipients, or for class placement. A good test score can only improve your application and you choose whether or not to include your score!
