Oyster Bay High School junior Rose Lindstrom has accomplished an incredible feat for a high schooler. She was recognized as one of only 27 students in the world to earn a perfect score on the Advanced Placement Seminar exam. Rose was enrolled in College Board’s AP Seminar course last year as part of the AP Capstone Program and earned the highest score a student can get on an AP exam, a 5, while gaining every possible point on the college-level exam.
Approximately 75,000 students from around the world took the AP Seminar exam last spring, making Rose only 0.04% of students to get a perfect score. The dedicated junior received 5’s on all her AP exams last year and she is currently enrolled in five AP courses – AP Biology, AP Computer Science Principles, AP Human Geography, AP Language and Composition and AP U.S. History. Rose is also an active member of Oyster Bay High School’s varsity tennis and golf teams, is the opinions editor of the school’s student-run newspaper, The Harbor Voice, and is president of Model UN.
“When College Board informed us that Rose was one of only 27 students worldwide to earn a perfect score on her AP Seminar exam, I have to admit that I was not surprised!” Oyster Bay High School Principal Melissa Argaman said. “There is no stopping this dynamic young woman! Rose’s intelligence, coupled with an incredible work ethic and a great personality, is going to take her far in life. I look forward to watching all she is going to accomplish in the coming years.”
Congratulations, Rose!
