This is a half-truth, because there isn't really an AP Computer Science anymore. From wikipedia:
"Due to low numbers of students taking the exam, AP Computer Science AB was discontinued following the May 2009 exam administration."
Today's offering is, at best, some light familiarity with Java. That one is called "AP Computer Science A". There is even a wholly useless "AP Computer Science Principles" that involves writing small essays about non-technical aspects of computing.
