Advanced Placement (AP) Exam Updates

The College Board has released some new AP Exam resources:

AP Exam Day Checklist: Your child should complete this checklist (.pdf/513.39 KB) for each AP Exam they'll be taking this year, and keep it next to them on test day.

Explainer Videos: New videos are available to give your child quick, easily accessible information about the test day experience and what they need to do to prepare. Additional videos will be posted to this playlist soon.

Accommodations details for the exams are also available now.

HCPSS teachers will continue to work with students to share resources and course specific exam information in preparation for testing. Please visit the HCPSS Grades and Testing FAQ for more information.

In addition, AP Coordinators will be sharing the message below with AP Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, and Spanish Language teachers. The teachers will be messaging their students to notify them of the required devices.

The AP ______ language exam will require the use of a smartphone or tablet to deliver the assessment. College Board will be releasing a new AP World Languages Exam App in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store during the week of May 11th. This free app is required to take the assessment. Only language exams will require this specialized app.

If you do not have a smartphone/tablet available that can access the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store, please fill out this survey as soon as possible: Survey

The College Board will provide additional support depending on device and internet needs.

A video walk-through of the test-taking experience will be available the week of May 4.
