Many people could slack off and cheat to get easy As if this were the case. The standards must be higher in those classes. In my AP Chem class, for instance, 80% is an A-, (and only two people had above 90%) whereas in all of my other classes, 89.5% or 90.0% is an A-.
Only like three or four people in our AP chem classes have above 90%, and 89%=B+. And all but one are sophomores who aren't technically supposed to be there, but took summer courses to skip out of biology or honors chem.
