Advanced Placement (AP)
Students AP test at NM for a variety of reasons. The two most recognized reasons include CREDIT and COLLEGE SUCCESS. Entering college with AP credits gives you time to move into upper-level courses in your field of interest, pursue a double major, or study/travel abroad. See the AP CENTRAL link below to find out more about how colleges view AP as college credit. Research consistently shows that students who are successful in AP typically experience greater academic success in college than similar students who do not participate in AP. College admissions recognize and sometimes give additional "points" for students who take AP courses and test. NMHS AP coordinator is Mrs. Gallo. Registering to test must be completed with payment before spring break. Cost is $92, some fee reductions may apply. See the AP BULLETIN below to find out more about the advantages of AP testing. *There is no requirement to take an AP course to test before testing.
