Rethinking Advanced Placement- New York Times

I think this is great that they are going to change the advanced placement exams in biology.  Like it said in the article, there was way to much stuff that the teachers were supposed to go over in a very short time. It put stress on the teachers and on the students.  It's good that they going to have standards that the teacher will have to meet.  This will make sure that every ap class in biology will roughly be going over the same topics.  Different testings and classes like advanced placement classes need to be updated every so often.  As the years go by, many things are changing and ap testing is one example of something that needed to be changed.  One concern I do have is will this cost schools more money and if so how much?
