• As students, parents, and high-school advisers know, "good students" should strive to take as many AP courses as they can manage, and then pass the placement exams with grades of 4 or 5.

• This will impress college-admission committees and remove the need to ever experience that material at an introductory level in college.

• The financial benefits can amount to a semester or more of tuition saved.

• The sense of being pre-certified with elite status adds to self-esteem - a fact central to those who so successfully market the term "advanced placement."

CONS• “….believe this notion of value-added has led

to another version of getting more bang for the buck: the fantastic pressure put on students to get more

than "just a bachelor's degree" for their four years of tuition.”

--Michael Mendillo (Chronicle of Higher Education

2012)

• “Ultimately, colleges should be developing ways to have general-education goals met not at the onset of college, when incoming freshmen have the mind-set of ninth-semester high-school students, but in upper-class years when students have more of a foundation upon which to experience and to contribute to the breadth of their own education.”

--Michael Mendillo (Chronicle of Higher Education

2013)
