Question

Quote:
Public schools are ranked according to a ratio devised by Jay Mathews: the number of Advanced Placement, Intl. Baccalaureate and/or Cambridge tests taken by all students at a school in 2006 divided by the number of graduating seniors.
An objective and easy to calculate measure. I'm not sure it's a very GOOD measure, since simply taking an AP or IB test doesn't mean you're going to pass it or do well on it.
