AP students

Advanced high schoolers

AP students are high school students enrolled in Advanced Placement courses—college-level classes offered in American secondary schools.

These rigorous courses culminate in standardized exams; high scores can earn college credit.

The term often carries connotations of academic ambition or overachievement: The AP students were already stressed about finals in September.
