In the 2022-23 academic year we saw 96 students in Grades 11 and 12 participate in the Advanced Placement (AP) program, sitting a total of 202 AP Exams in May of 2023.
The AP program provides students the opportunity to take university-level courses while in High School. Students who receive a score of 3, 4, or 5 on the CollegeBoard’s AP exams can receive advance university credit from thousands of colleges around the world. This year our results continue to be strong in comparison to average results in Egypt and globally.
Of the subjects for which El Alsson students took exams, 61.2% of exams taken globally received a score of 3 or above and 65.8% of exams in Egypt received a score of 3 or above. El Alsson students topped both the Egyptian and global averages with 72.7% of our exams receiving a score of 3 or above. This is quite an accomplishment and well done to our AP students and teachers!
Some noteworthy highlights include:
- The average test scores for El Alsson students (in subjects testing 4 or more students) match or surpass Egypt’s mean test scores in 11 of 13 subjects including: 2D Art & Design, Biology, Calculus AB, English Language & Composition, French Language & Culture, German Language & Culture, Macroeconomics, Microeconomics, Physics 1, and Psychology.
- The average test scores for El Alsson students (in subjects testing 4 or more students) match or surpass the Global mean test scores in 11 of 13 subjects including: 2D Art & Design, Biology, Calculus AB, Computer Science Principles, English Language & Composition, French Language & Culture, German Language & Culture, Macroeconomics, Microeconomics, Psychology and Modern World History.
- The percentage of El Alsson students scoring 3+ were substantially higher (10% or higher) in comparison to Global performance in 2D Art & Design, Biology, Calculus AB, Computer Science Principles, German Language & Culture, Macroeconomics, Microeconomics, Psychology, and Modern World History.
Congratulations to all of our AP students on their results!
We look forward to sharing the AP Scholar Award recipients after July 17th.
