The national exams weed out those students who benefited from grade inflation. The local exam alone was a bad idea. Their new requirements are insanity. I thought All the AP exams were national exams, that is why they are accepted across state lines. Is my understanding incorrect?

That is what I thought. It sounded like they were using something else in the article. I could be wrong. Of course the national exams are still a joke. They (Penn State) accepted 16 credits, but the University still requires four years based on the sequence of courses to attain an engineering degree.
