Abstract
The Advanced Placement Statistics course, first offered in 1997 after more than 12 years of planning, allows high school students who pass an examination to receive college credit for a statistics course taken at their high school. In its third year 25,240 students took this examination, and 57% “passed.” The three-hour exam consists of both multiple choice and free response questions, which cover the four sections of the AP Statistics syllabus: Data exploration, study design, probability distributions through simulation, and inference. Although some problems remain, both students and teachers find the course to be challenging and valuable.
