[Counselors] AP scores

[OSRHE EPAS PK-12 Counselor Discussion Board]

We use the following for English, with one full credit per course.

English Comp I = English III
English Comp II = English IV

It is written on their transcript as the university course name. There is an asterisk by the course number, and a notation on the transcript that asterisk courses are concurrent enrollment courses.

Previously, Eng Comp I was first semester and Eng Comp II was second semester of English IV... I want us to be able to decide how we need that for each student. Right now with all of English IV coming from Eng Comp II, a senior could go into their second semester, after being unsuccessful in Eng Comp II with no senior English credit-very unsettling for a counselor. :)


We do not count an AP score for English IV.  They must either have English IV or Comp I and II or a semester of each at McAlester High School.

We replace a semester of senior English with a semester of Freshman Comp.  Must have two semesters to replace entire year.

QUESTION:

I need some direction as to how districts are documenting AP scores on transcripts.

I have been told that AP scores of 3 or higher in AP Language and Composition can substitute for Composition 1 at TCC. This of course allows them to skip Comp 1 and head straight into Composition II concurrently.

I have a student now taking Comp II at TCC who passed her AP test last year but it looks as though she didn't take senior English 1st semester.

How are schools documenting senior English for these particular students?
