Make up exams will happen in June. College Board has strongly encouraged all students to take the exam in May. If that truly is not possible, here is the schedule for make-up exams. If you miss the first exam, you should automatically receive info about a make up exam. If you don’t, please contact College Board.

If you accidentally close the browser, your device crashes, or you temporarily lose internet access, you can quickly click your exam e-ticket again to return to the exam. Continue the exam, and if you feel at the end of the exam that the temporary disruption negatively impacted your performance, you can request approval to take the makeup exam at cb.org/requestmakeup.
Tip: During the exam, don’t refresh your browser or hit the back arrow. Don’t call: Customer service centers won't be open due to the pandemic. If you lost too much time to a technical problem, aren’t able to connect to your exam, or experienced some other serious disruption, you can request a makeup exam at cb.org/requestmakeup.
If you do not take your exam, and you have paid for it, College Board has said Rocky will not be charged. This means, if that is true, you will get a refund of $94 per exam. (there is a $4 processing fee that we don’t have control over) The issue with the exam refund would be it will have to occur after all testing is over in June. We don’t have an actual date of when we will be able to start doing refunds, but it won’t happen until we are back in the building. Parents and students will need to be patient with getting a refund. It would also need to happen via mail and will be sent to the address we have for the family.
2020 AP Testing Guide: The guide, designed to walk students through test day, provides information about:
2020 AP Exam Day Checklist: Complete this checklist for each exam and keep it next to you while testing.
Explainer Videos: (There is a testing walk through video here) Also, there are new videos posted to give students quick, easily accessible information about their test day experience, what they need to do to prepare, exam security, and more.
AP Exam Demo (available May 4): From May 4th on, you can access an AP 2020 Exam Demo at cb.org/apdemo. AP students should use the clickable exam demo to practice the different ways to submit their exam responses. The demo will help students confirm that their testing device will be able to access and run the online exam. If they can’t access the demo, the final slide of the Testing Guide can help them troubleshoot. The sample content in the demo will be the same for all users and isn't a practice exam. We’ll send educators and students an email to remind them when the demo is available. College Board wants us to please encourage students to take this important preparation step.
Online AP Classes and Review Sessions prep week: The week before exams, online AP classes will focus on the exam day experience and sample exam questions.
Information for AP French, German, and Spanish:
