[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not a fan of monopolist College Board collecting $3 million of our tax dollars with no accountability.   [/quote]
what kind of accountability are you looking for from the CB?[/quote]

I am looking for score reporting akin to what they do for SAT.  That would be number of multiple choice questions correct/incorrect; general point reporting for essays and short answer questions.  Currently it's a black box - take the test, get a number 1-5.[/quote]
I agree with you there, but that's not really "accountability".  College Board also owns SAT, btw.[/quote]

I guess it is at least scoring transparency? There are definitely other measures of accountability for use of taxpayer funds for AP tests including how they help under resourced schools teach the material and administer the tests as well as whether the juice is worth the squeeze in terms of actually making a difference to the new kids who otherwise would have not have taken the test (pass rates, college credits received, etc.)[/quote]
