    AP World History is typically more rigorous. It probably involves more reading, a more advanced textbook written at the college level, a heavier work load, and more challenging classwork. You should definitely take AP over Honors if you're up for the challenge. AP gives you the opportunity to take a nationally administered exam in May, and if you do well on it, you can potentially get college credit for it. AP classes are generally more attractive on your high school transcript; colleges like to see that you're taking the most advanced course load available to you. Honors World tends to be little more than the basic high school history course. There's really not much to say about it.
