<p>Okay, well, I was considering self-studying APs, but then I ran across this site:
[UCCP</a> Open Access](<a href=“http://www.ucopenaccess.org/]UCCP ”>http://www.ucopenaccess.org/ )</p>
<p>Is it a good idea to use this? has anyone used this before to study for APs? can you tell me anything about these courses if you have?</p>
<p>I am currently taking 4 online APs through Apex Learning, and some of the videos I watched on Apex are the exact same as those on UCCP. So far I’ve taken 3 APs through Apex and passed them all. So, I think it’d be just as easy to do these on my own.</p>
<p>Thanks–any comments would be great! :)</p>
<p>wow, I have never heard of that website, but just checked it out and it looked awesome!!</p>

<p>awesome website!! definately gonna bookmark this :P</p>
<p>I took Calc AB on apex, and I used UCCP to learn the material for BC. I would suggest getting a textbook as well for some of the more complicated stuff.</p>
<p>Thanks for the site!</p>
<p>Does Apex cost money? This UCCP thing looks awesome!</p>
<p>I don’t know if it costs money. I took it through LAVA (LAUSD Virtual Academy), so I had a teacher who was the coordinator.</p>

<p>Apex == $350 + course materials (books)… however, some courses do not require books.
In Apex there is a “teacher” and you receive grades.</p>
<p>Btw, if you want to view UCCP Open Access courses in a more user-friendly format, check out this:
[Course</a> Catalog](<a href=“http://www.uccp.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=56&Itemid=78]Course ”>http://www.uccp.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=56&Itemid=78 )</p>
<p>On Biology, you are linked to the un-user friendly page. Here is the user friendly page (I just had to manipulate the URLs from another course
