In my kids' high school, about 500 of the 1000 students in each grade level were signed up for at least AP English, and a majority of those 500 were also signed up for AP Biology, AP History and AP Calculus. As long as a student could keep a C average, they were allowed in the class.

AP wasn't even invented when I was in school. smile
