Public schools are ranked according to a ratio, called the Challenge Index, devised by Jay Mathews: the number of Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate tests taken by all students at a school in 2002 divided by the number of graduating seniors. Schools that chose more than half of their students by competitive comparison of grades or test scores were not considered. The list is designed to show which schools challenge their average students and does not work well with schools that have few or no average students.
The top 100 schools in the original version of this list appeared as the cover story of the June 2, 2003, issue of Newsweek. In the original Newsweek.com version of the list, which had 739 schools, Mathews asked any schools that might have been missed to contact him. Of those who did so, 85 qualified as having ratios of at least 1.000 in 2002, and have been added to this list.
