[quote=Anonymous]I would also say, to add to the "competing goals" conversation - if you're looking at scores from OTHER kids, what matters is not their college applications. What matters is that enough people at the school have enough of a command of the material that the CLASS must have been taught at a true AP level. If you're a kid who has the skills to get a 4/5 in an AP class, but the "AP class" at your school is actually full of kids who don't take the exam at all, or who will take it and get a 1 or even a 2, that class may not give you what you need to succeed. Whereas, a class full of kids, most of whom will get at least a three, is a true AP class that can give you what you need. Three feels like the right cutoff for that. [/quote]
