According to results from the College Board, The Dewey Schools had a vibrant summer as TDSers 11Paris reaped the rewards in the Advanced Placement (AP) exams for the 2023 – 2024 school year. With over 35 exams across 10 subjects such as English Language and Composition, World History, Biology, and Calculus AB, Dewey Students achieved impressive results:
- 100% of Students scored above 3/5 in 7 out of 10 subjects.
- 100% of Students scored 3 or higher in AP Calculus AB.
- Nearly 80% of Students had an average score of 3 or higher across all subjects.
- 72% of Students scored a perfect 5/5 in World History.
- 60% of exams scored 4/5 (Excellent) and 5/5 (Outstanding) across all subjects.
- The average score for TDS Students in Calculus AB was 4.2, higher than the national average of 3.64 and the global average of 3.60.
- The average score for TDS Students in World History was 4.14, higher than the national average of 4.10 and the global average of 3.75.
Additionally, The Dewey Schools proudly honored the TDSers who received the AP Scholar Award, recognizing Students who achieved outstanding performance at the university level in the AP exams.
AP Scholar with Distinction (awarded to Students who achieve an average score of at least 3.5 on all AP exams taken, and scores of 3 or higher on five or more exams):
Yang Yeahyun (4.60)
Kim Minseo (4.33)
Jang Woojung (3.89)
AP Scholar (awarded to Students who score 3 or higher on three or more AP exams):
Đặng Nguyệt Anh (4.67)
Lê Khôi Nguyên (3.33)
Notably, Dang Nguyet Anh achieved a score of 5/5 in two out of three subjects: English Language and Composition, and World History. Additionally, Dang Nguyet Anh is in the top 9% of Students worldwide who scored 5/5 in English Language and Composition, which is considered one of the most challenging AP subjects due to the relatively low rate of perfect scores compared to other AP exams.
Achieving outstanding scores in AP exams gives Students a significant advantage when applying for and securing scholarships at top universities worldwide. Qualifying AP exam scores are eligible for credit at most universities in the United States and Canada, and are recognized in 60 other countries globally. Students have the opportunity to earn credit, skip introductory or general education courses, and save a substantial amount of time and money in their academic journey.
Once again, The Dewey Schools congratulates the Students who achieved impressive results in the AP exams. We wish you continued confidence, brilliance, and success as you conquer new challenges on your journey of knowledge discovery, always embodying the spirit of lifelong learning!
