- xapata 10y agoAbout 20k students take the AP Computer Science exam each year, split 14k for the A-level and 6k for the AB-level. I was going to make some argument that the AP students are all aiming for top schools, but the numbers seem to say otherwise. At least, 14k sounds like a lot.
- teach 10y agoYour data is super old; the AB-level exam was discontinued in 2009, and last year we had nearly 60,000 students that took the A exam. But your point is therefore even more valid: not all of these students are going to be at top schools.
- xapata 10y agoWow, that is old. I looked up stats from the collegeboard website. I guess they haven't updated. Or maybe Google led me to an old page they haven't removed.
