Abstract

This paper is an objective comparison of College Board guidelines for teaching AP U.S. History, evaluating the 2014 version for bias.

Advanced Placement U.S. History courses are taken by many college-bound high school students and can potentially count as college credit. Their content, and the test that determines if a student gets credit are determined by the College Board, the same entity that constructs and administers the SAT college entrance exam.
