Each year, WICHE produces the Regional Fact Book for Higher Education in the West: Policy Indicators for Higher Education: WICHE State based on comprehensive state and regional data in a policy context to support policymaking in the West. In the last edition (March 2002), the first section of the book was devoted to student preparation for higher education. Presented here are several indicators in this section focused on state participation in Advance Placement (AP) program.
