AP (Advanced Placement) Tests – College Course Equivalents
AP tests are usually given at LCM High School in May. LCMHS offers the following AP courses: Calculus AB, English Language and Composition, English Literature and Composition, and Statistics. 

Scores on these AP tests determine how many college credits a student may be eligible for. In 2015 the Texas Legislature passed a law (HB 1992) that affects the way that Texas public colleges and universities award credit for AP tests.  The intent was to increase access to college credit and improve retention and graduation rates for students across the state by requiring credit for AP scores of 3 or higher.

Find all colleges and universities that offer credit or placement for AP scores. Check each college or university's website for their current AP credit policy. Students should consult their college academic advisor for advice on the number of credits that can be used in their degree program to avoid excessive credit accumulation.
