Advanced Placement® & Honors
A Commitment to Equity and Excellence
Developed by leading experts, AMSCO® coursebooks and Wiley® texts meet the promise and challenge of AP® courses by offering the right level of subject depth, instruction, and practice. Each program is designed to prepare students for AP success with the rigor of a college-level course.
- Alignment to the latest College Board® Course and Exam Descriptions (CEDs).
- Accessible and engaging content for ALL students.
- High-quality primary sources.
- Extensive practice opportunities.
The content allows teachers to focus on what really matters—ensuring students learn to think critcally, evaluate sources, and develop coherent arguments.

The Promise
- AP® coursework build academic confidence and college-readiness skills—including writing, time management, and critical thinking.
- 85% of selective colleges and universities report that a student’s AP experience favorably impacts admission decisions.
- Research indicates students who take AP courses have a greater likelihood of graduating college on time.
- Underserved students who participate in AP and score a 3 or higher are more likely to earn a college degree and carry less student debt.


The Challenge
- Mean AP scores for underserved student populations fall significantly below the level necessary for college credit.
- Since one of the main reasons to take AP courses is an economic one, score disparities hit low-income students hardest—the debt-reduction benefits of AP credit accrue only to those who pass.
- While AP participation among underrepresented students has grown, outcome gaps remain, with many of these students never sitting for the exam.
- Access alone is insufficient—expanding AP without targeted support and differentiated instruction does not close equity gaps for disadvantaged students.
