Summary View help for Summary
The College and Beyond II (CBII) Advanced Placement Data contains Advanced Placement (AP) student test and course credit records from four postsecondary systems that participated in the CBII study. Records are recorded at the student-test level and cover the time period from approximately 2000 to 2019. Variables include AP test name, AP test score, an indicator of whether the student received credit for the test, and the name of the college course to which the credit best maps. Not all variables are available for all systems. The AP data can be linked to other student-level data in the CBII series using the id_person identifier.
