The rankings are in order from 1-50. Where the Index is the same for multiple schools, this is due to rounding. The Index was
taken out to more decimal places in order to determine the rankings in very close ratios.

Note:
Every public and non-public high school in Iowa that is accredited by the Iowa Department of Education and that had
at least one AP exam taken was invited to participate in the Index. Magnet schools and Specially Accredited College
Preparatory Schools are not included.
