[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]It helps determine which schools have grade inflation.[/b] Our private Catholic is rated very high and does well with college matriculation because the exams are required (or you fail the course) and the vast majority get 4s-5s. Colleges do see the AP profile of schools. My kid got all 5s, reported them and did very well with T10/20s.[/quote] That is the most important. [/quote] If done correctly, we can replace transcript with AP scores. Honestly, transcripts from some high schools are watered down and could not be used meaningfully. National wide exams should replace transcript. The next thing to do is to make AP exams much harder than they are right now. [b]Instead of half or more getting 5s, [/b] thre should be a cap on only 5% can get a score of 5.[/quote] Are you ok? 50% of kids taking AP exams do not get a 5. [/quote]
