Unit & Course Pacing
AP® Statistics
In the following guide, a “day” is one 45-minute class period. The whole course can be completed in 119 instructional days, leaving several weeks for AP Exam review in most school calendars.
Block schedules: For block bell schedules (e.g. 90-minute class periods), instructors should aim to complete 2 days of content in one block class period.
