The College board added that units on sex and gender had been present in the AP Psychology curriculum “since the course launched 30 years ago.” “We cannot modify AP Psychology in response to regulations that would censor college-level standards for credit, placement, and career readiness. Our policy remains unchanged. Any course that censors required course content cannot be labeled ‘AP’ or ‘Advanced Placement,’ and the ‘AP Psychology’ designation cannot be utilized on student transcripts,” the College Board added.

Students who pass AP testing with high enough scores can earn college credits, potentially shaving significant time and expense off of their degrees. The organization further lamented that the state’s law “derails the college readiness and affordability plans of tens of thousands of Florida students currently registered for AP Psychology, one of the most popular AP classes in the state.”
