AP Music Theory isn't hard. Ms. Bistolfo just assigns a lot of work, and since the class ratio is so small... I think my year only had like 7 students at max... you are expected to participate. Easy A however, just as long as you are able to complete the huge amount of work assigned. Tests are out of the Barrons book, be warned though... they are HARD.

Sight singing is a big portion of AP Music Theory, so it's good if you have had prior singing experience whether it be as a soloist or with a choir.
