Administered annually over two weeks in May by the College Board, Advanced Placement exams allow high school students to demonstrate college-level mastery in 38 subjects ranging from Calculus and Biology to Art History and Computer Science. The program was launched in 1955 after a Ford Foundation-funded pilot study recommended that talented students should earn college credit early. Scores range from 1 to 5, with most colleges granting credit for scores of 3 or higher. Over 2.8 million students took AP exams in 2023, completing more than 5 million individual exams. A top score can save families thousands of dollars in tuition by allowing students to skip introductory college courses, and the exams are offered in over 100 countries.
