For each AP course taken at a participating high school, an AP Exam is administered. Each AP Exam is given an overall grade of 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5, with 5 indicating a student who is extremely well qualified to receive college credit and/or advanced placement. Appalachian does not accept any scores lower than "3" and sometimes gives additional credit for scores of "4" or "5."
