Lisa Siefker Bailey, Ph.D., recently participated in the annual reading and scoring of the College Board’s AP examinations. She read the English literature portion of the tests.

Each year the AP program, sponsored by the College Board, gives more than one million capable high school students an opportunity to take rigorous college-level courses and examinations and, based on their exam performance, to receive credit and/or placement when they enter college.

More than 2.7 million examinations from 37 AP courses were evaluated by over 10,000 AP readers from universities and high schools. 

Siefker Bailey is an English lecturer in the Division of Liberal Arts at IUPUC.
