The College Board's Advanced Placement Program offers students the opportunity to take challenging college-level courses while still in high school, and to receive college credit, advanced placement, or both for successful performance on the AP Exams. About 17 percent of the more than one million high school students in almost 15,000 secondary schools worldwide who took AP Exams performed at a sufficiently high level to merit the recognition of AP Scholar. The students took their last AP Exams in May 2005 after completing challenging college-level courses at The Stony Brook School. The College Board recognizes several levels of achievement based on student's performance on AP exams.
