A class taken by a group of overachievers, aiming to wow colleges by taking a
unique class that'
s supposed to teach them to do college research papers. Upon applying for the class, students often have no idea of what to expect, but are calmed by the idea that they soon
will. It's only until the
day before the actual AP exam that students realize they still
haven't figured out what the class is all about. Yet, when others
ask them what the class is all about they are known to recite the exact description published by Collegeboard word for word. And while students often complain about the overwhelming workload, they are secretly comforted by the fact that it's their easiest
AP and refuse to let the outside world uncover their darkest secret. The typical
AP Seminar student is known for their
deep desire to write and publish their own review book on the class in order to profit off the class before opponents such as Barrons or the Princeton Review can.
