The numbers of Wisconsin high school students who take Advanced Placement exams keeps growing. State education officials say 34-percent of last spring's graduating seniors took at least one A-P test -- up from 19-percent a decade before. Twenty-four percent of those taking the exams scored at least a three, on a scale of one-to-five. That's almost twice the 13-percent who scored three-or-higher back in 2004 -- high enough for those students to get college credits before they step foot on a campus.
