  11. AP Dashboard Inquiry Finco & Torkelson

  12. AP (Advanced Placement) Entry Points Students who pursue advanced college-levelcoursework through AP, IB, or dual enrollmentoptions signal that they have attained collegereadiness by virtue of their performance. APsubject test scores of three or higher (out of five)and IB subject area scores of five or higher (out of seven) often earn students college credit in those subject areas, and research indicates that scores in these ranges correspond with lower college-level remediation rates and higher college GPAs (International Baccalaureate Organization, 2010; Mattern, Shaw, & Xiong, 2009). Dual enrollment students who pass and earn credit for a college course typically keep the credits if they enroll in the host institution after high school. They may also be able to transfer the credits to another institution. From American Institutes of Research (AIR), April 2012 [betterhighschools.org]
