Advanced Placement

At most Broward County public and private high schools, AP (Advanced Placement) courses are available to you in your junior and senior years. To receive college credit after completing an AP course, you must take a national examination in May. If you attend a public school, the examination fee is paid by the school. Each private school makes its own arrangements for the test taking fee.

The test is scored from one through five, five being the highest. If you score three or better on the test, college credit will be granted by most colleges and universities in and outside Florida. Broward Community College will grant college credit to you if your AP score is three or higher.

BCC awards credit for passing scores on standardized exams as follows:
