• summary: AP Research is the second course in the AP Capstone program, where students design, execute, and present an independent, college-level research project on a topic of their choice. Building on the skills learned in AP Seminar, students develop a research question, conduct a literature review, choose a methodology, collect and analyze data, and draw evidence-based conclusions. The course culminates in an academic paper (around 4,000–5,000 words) and a public presentation with an oral defense. AP Research emphasizes critical thinking, scholarly writing, and the ability to synthesize complex information—preparing students for college and beyond.
