Common Questions

FAQ: Everything Parents Ask

Can't find what you need? Our academic advisors are available across all US time zones.

Does my child need coding experience first?+
No, but it helps. We assess in the first session and adjust the starting point.
How is AP CS A different from AP CS Principles?+
CS A is a Java programming course. CS Principles is broader and less code-intensive.
Do you cover the case study?+
Yes, in full, alongside released free-response questions.
Is handwriting code really necessary?+
