The 2023 AP Seminar scores: 5: 11%; 4: 20%; 3: 57%; 2: 11%; 1: 1%. Many schools are merging AP Seminar with English 10 to build skills; as a result, it’s this year’s fastest growing AP subject (30% increase). Even with such growth, 88% earned scores of 3+, same as last year.

“AP Capstone is when you stop asking students what they want to be when they grow up and start asking students which problems they want to solve.” -AP Seminar teacher from Greenbelt, MD

@CCPSk12 teachers from all of our high schools are attending training this week on how to engage our students in research and inquiry through AP Seminar English 10! We are working to open opportunities for our students to excel and engage in learning! @CollegeBoard
