My school got the National Blue Ribbon thing too in 1999, 2000, and 2001 in Pennsylvania, but it's not up there.

Damn, I think my school would be in the top 50 if this included private schools.

333 . Palmer* | Colorado Springs | Colo. | 1.517

That is my first high school. I am shocked that the school I graduated from is not on there.

But of course, it was kind of considered to be a private school so maybe its not allowed to be on the list.

That list doesn't say what the best schools are--- it says which schools dumb down their AP programs enough for the averege student to take them-- the public school I used to attend, is great, incredible SAT's, wonderful education, but they only let kids into AP's who they feel can do well in a class that truly is on a college level... not just anyone who feel like taking it.

Well remember, Kitana85, that the list gives scores according to how many people get passing grades on the AP. I personally think that should mean grades of 4 or 5 because getting a 3 is really quite easy to do. But the list does have some standards.

I agree on that one. I got a three on the English grammar AP and I wasn't in an AP class and didn't study for it at all.

How about finding out the 100 WORST high schools in America. that would be more interesting. I know Erasmus(Brooklyn) would definitely be in the top 10.
