AP classes you get a bump in 2 letter grades
Honor classes bumps you up 1 letter grade.
For example, if you have a C in AP Amercian History, they'll count it as an A on your GPA. If you get a D in Chemistry Honors, it'll count as a C on your GPA.
The good part about it, say you get an A in your AP class, on your GPA it'll count 2 extra points to it. An A in regular is 4, but since it's AP, it'll be 6. Or a B in regular is 3, but in AP, it counts as 5.

In my county in Virginia, AP students have the same grading scale as everyone else in terms of number scores (94-100 is an A, 84-93 is a B, 74-83 is a C, 64-73 is a D, and 63 and below is an F). However, getting an A in an AP class counts more toward your GPA, as you get a 5 for getting an A, instead of a 4 for an A in a regular class. The Honors classes carry the same weight as the AP classes, so you still get a 5 for getting an A instead of a 4.

For our school, AP classes are 93-100 is an A, 92- 85 is a B, 84-77 is a C, 77-70 is a D and 69-0 is an F. But, for our honors classes, the grading scale is the common 100-90 A, 89-80 B...and so on.
