Performance was examined for five cohorts of 1998-2002 Texas public high school graduates through their first year and 1998-2001 cohorts through their fourth year of Texas public higher education.  Student performance on college outcomes included (a) first- and fourth-year grade point averages, (b) first- and fourth-year credit hours earned, and (c) four-year graduation status.  Outcomes were compared across students who varied by three types of AP (course only, exam only, and both course and exam) and two types of non-AP (dual enrollment only and other course only) experiences in high school.
