No More AP Credits at Dartmouth

Dartmouth College has decided not to give college credit for AP exams any more.  Although the college still believes that the courses are useful in preparing students for college level work, after years of discussion, they decided that they really aren't the same as a college level course.  In recent years, some schools have tightened up the criteria for receiving credit, only accepting 4's or 5's on the AP exams.  It will be interesting to see if other schools begin to follow suit.
