What to do on an AP Testing day?
 
When to arrive to your AP Exam:
AM Exams:  7:30
PM Exams:  11:30     Physics C E&M:  1:45
 
Random Seating:
The College Board requires random seating so it is important that students pay close attention to seating charts hung outside the testing area. Tables in the testing area will be clearly marked.
 
Items required for taking an AP Exam:

•     Student ID or Driver’s License

•     2-3 Sharpened #2 Pencils

•     2-3 Pens (blue or black ink) used for completing areas on the exam booklet covers and for free-response questions in most exams

•     Up to 2 approved calculators with the necessary capabilities if you are taking the AP Biology, Calculus, Chemistry, Physics, or Statistics exam.

•     A ruler or straightedge if you are taking an AP Physics exam.

 

Items NOT allowed in the AP testing room:

•     Cell Phones

•     Water/drinks/food

•     Backpacks/purses

•     Smart Watches

 

Your exam proctor will direct you to the area to place backpacks/purses, etc. Cell phones must be turned off so any inadvertent calls or texts will not disturb everyone testing.
 
Snacks/drinks are encouraged but may only be consumed during the ten-minute break offered during the exam.
 
If a student is taking both a morning and afternoon exam (e.g., 5/1 Chemistry at 8:00 and Psychology at 12:00), they will not have time to go out for lunch between exams.  It is strongly suggested the student bring a lunch to eat at the church between the two exams.
