Chapter 3 focuses on the students who enroll in the AP chemistry course and the IB program, what is taught and how well it is being taught, the grade levels at which these advanced courses are offered, and the background and prerequisites needed to take and succeed in the courses. Chapter 4 addresses those who teach AP and IB chemistry courses, including their academic preparation, credentials, and appropriateness for the task.
