Abstract	Educators across the United States continue to enable a wider and more ethnically diverse proportion of students to achieve success in AP[R]. Significant inequities remain, however, which can result in traditionally underserved students not receiving the type of AP (Advanced Placement) opportunities that can best prepare them for college success. "The 6th Annual AP Report to the Nation" uses a combination of state, national and AP Program data to provide each U.S. state with the context it can use to celebrate its successes, understand its unique challenges, and set meaningful and data-driven goals to prepare more students for success in college. Highlights of this report include: (1) Across the nation, educators and policymakers are helping a wider segment of the U.S. student population experience success in AP; (2) Increasing numbers of African American, Latino and American Indian students are participating in AP, but these students remain underserved; (3) An equity and excellence gap appears when traditionally underserved students comprise a smaller percentage of the successful student group than the percentage these students represent in the graduating class; and (4) More low-income students are participating and experiencing success in AP than ever before. Appended are: (1) Raw Numbers for Table 1; and (2) AP Program Data at a Glance. (Contains 3 tables, 2 figures and 12 footnotes.)
