Hey guys, I've been doing some research about AP courses and stumbled upon something called an 'AP Scholar'. Does anyone know what this title denotes? Is it an important accolade that colleges look out for?
The AP Scholar award is a distinction granted by the College Board in recognition of exceptional academic achievement for students who have taken multiple AP exams. There are several levels of this award:
- AP Scholar: awarded to students who have scored 3 or higher on three or more AP exams.
- AP Scholar with Honor: awarded to students who have an average
