The College Board champions -- by means of superior research; curricular development; assessment; guidance, placement, and admission information; professional development; forums; policy analysis; and public outreach -- educational excellence for all students.

College Board, College Board Online, Advanced Placement Program, AP, College Explorer, and the acorn logo are registered trademarks of the College Entrance Examination Board. The Advanced Placement Program (AP ), a cooperative educational endeavor, is based on the premise that college-level material can be taught successfully to able and wellprepared secondary school students. Participating colleges, in turn, grant credit, appropriate placement, or both to students who have done well on the AP Examinations. Approximately 59 percent of the nation's nearly 22,000 high schools offer some college-level AP course work, and more than 700,000 students participated in the AP Program this year. Use by both schools and students has grown steadily in recent years. As an intermediary agent of the participating institutions, the AP Program: provides conferences, consultants, and curricular materials to help interested schools establish college-level courses; fumishes and grades examinations based on the goals set forth in the AP Course Descriptions; sends examination grades to the students, their schools, and their designated colleges; prepares related publications; supports appropriate research; and provides reports to students, schools, school districts, colleges, systems and consortia of colleges and universities, and state agencies. n response to increased interest in the Advanced Placement Program, the College Board produces, as part of its reporting process, the series of tables printed in this booklet reflecting student participation in the 1999 AP Examinations. A more detailed understanding of AP trends and related information can be found in the companion publication, the 1999 AP Yearbook. The Advanced Placement Program is sponsored by the College Board with the advice of national groups of educators, its Council on College-Level Services, and its academic advisory committees in the disciplines concerned. The College Board, founded in 1900 with headquarters in New York City, is a nonprofit membership organization of 3,000 colleges and universities, schools, school systems, and education associations. ts regional offices are identified on the back cover of this publication. n the operation of most of its testing programs and related services, the College Board contracts for technical and operational services with Educational Testing Service (ETS), an independent, nonprofit agency with headquarters in Princeton, New Jersey. #~04~O#0~4~40tO4#44000t0+4#440#~00o4t0+4044~o ~4~+44#4O *4#~4~440~#0*#~+##~O#~4#~44~04~*~4##~04~+0~#+~ 1

3 1999 AP STATE SUMMARY REPORT TABLES These AP State Reports are produced in response to the increasing interest by educational leaders in obtaining annual profiles of AP Program participation in their states. The content and format of these comprehensive reports were developed in collaboration with a number of chief state school officers and their staffs. The reports provide an opportunity for educators and educational policymakers to better understand the academic preparation of the growing numbers of college-bound students who take one or more AP Exams in a given year. n addition, the reports provide a backdrop against which school and college administrators and faculty can examine Advanced Placement Program participation by their students. These reports can also be used for academic planning by schools and colleges. The organization of the following state tables is identical to the national summary report tables, which begin on page 17. n addition to the tables found in the national report, however, the state report contains two additional tables: n-state and Out-of-State Colleges Receiving the Greatest Number of AP Grades for Students from the State. The state tables are followed by a worksheet with examples of how to analyze the data in the tables. The first example for each table is identical to the examples for the national tables (see page 17); simply supply the corresponding data for the state. A second example is provided for each table on the state worksheet to further illustrate how the data can be used as the basis for both internal and external reports. n the following tables, for each racial/ethnic group (self-reported by students), AP grade distributions, totals, and mean (average) grades for each AP Examination are given. The last column in each table summarizes the performance of AP candidates at each grade level. The AP grading scale should be interpreted as follows:
