With the published National AP exam results showing only 13% of AP Lit test takers scored a 5 and you have 96% at GZ that says something. For all AP subject tests--the number of 4s-5s on each are 9-20% on average and GZ has 92% of their students scoring 4-5s across subjects.

And all students are required to take the AP exam or they will fail the AP course.

My son has been challenged academically, especially in English which is not his forte. All As all 4 years (so far).

My oldest got some Bs along the way at Gonzaga but is a straight A student in college and says college was easier than Gonzaga was for him.

All 5s on his AP exams as well, so they clearly prepared him well. He was also a presidential merit scholar there.
