AP Exam fees, including information about fee reductions.
Although
a lot of attention is given to the AP Exam, the AP experience really
begins a whole year before then. Here are some checkpoints based on a
traditional school year.
Please note:
§
Schools may assemble students earlier than these exam start times to
complete identifying information on answer sheets. Your AP Coordinator
is responsible for letting you know exactly when and where to report for
your exams.
§
Schools in Alaska must begin the morning exam administration between 7
a.m. and 8 a.m. local time and the afternoon exam administration between
11 a.m. and 12 noon local time. The AP Physics C: Electricity and
Magnetism Exam must begin between 1 and 2 p.m. in Alaska.
§
If you wish to take exams that are scheduled for the same time slot,
ask your Coordinator for information about taking one of the exams
during the late-testing period. You may not take both Calculus AB and
Calculus BC in one year.
*If
you plan to take exams scheduled for May 5 and your school will be
closed due to Cinco de Mayo, ask your Coordinator for information about
taking those exams during the late-testing period.
§ Early testing or testing at times other than those published by the College Board are not permitted under any circumstances.
