AP Parent Night
February 9, 2016
A.P. Coordinator: Sergio Quintero
Eastlake High School
∗ The Advanced Placement Program (AP) is a
challenging academic program designed to
provide students with college-level academic
courses.
What is AP?
Confidence — Develop better study habits, improve
your writing skills and sharpen your problem-solving
abilities — this will give you the confidence to tackle the
academic challenges that you can expect in college.
Credit — Entering college with AP credits gives you time
to move into upper-level courses in your field of interest,
pursue a double major, or study/travel abroad.
College Success — Research consistently shows that
students who are successful in AP typically experience
greater academic success in college than similar
students who do not participate in AP.
Why AP?
Your AP Exam score is a weighted combination of your
scores on the multiple-choice section and on the free-
response section. Although colleges and universities are
responsible for setting their own credit and placement
policies, AP scores offer a recommendation on how qualified
students are to receive college credit and placement. The
final score is reported on a 5-point scale:
5 = extremely well qualified
4 = well qualified
3 = qualified
2 = possibly qualified
1 = no recommendation
