[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm correcting the poster who thinks this is only about how many kids enroll in college-level courses. The E&E data point in the Challenge Index specifically says it's about the percentage of kids who PASS at least one college level test during their career there. For example, at Blair that is 56%, st Sherwood it is 54%, at BCC it's 71%, at Einstein it's 50%. This is not simply about packing AP classes with kids. Thy have to score a 3 or higher.[/quote] And now I'm correcting you. The E&E data is a metric provided by the College Board for context, but it is not used in calculating the Challenge Index rankings. This explains it: https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/education/how-the-americas-most-challenging-high-schools-list-works/2017/05/03/e6483160-2919-11e7-a616-d7c8a68c1a66_story.html?utm_term=.636860ae88c4[/quote]
