AP - Advanced Placement

• AP® courses are college-level courses offered in high school

• Courses reflect what is taught in top introductory college courses

• Students take AP Exams at the end of the course, measuring their mastery of college-level work

A score of 3 or higher on an AP exam can typically earn students college credit and/or placement into advanced courses in college.  HB 1992 now requires state colleges/universities to award credit for any AP score above 3.
