Yeah, honors and AP are "weighted classes," and honors and AP are worth 5 points for an A instead of 4 in regular classes. Honors are just faster paced and more in depth. For us, there's honors for chemistry and anatomy/phisiology, and the languages. For languages we go levels 1-5, where 4 is honors and 5 is AP, and you can't take a "regular" level 4 or 5 language. We can take Spanish 1 over 2 years in 7th and 8th grade (Spanish 1A and Spanish 1B), or in one year in 9th grade, but if you do it in one year, you can't get to AP Spanish.
