Individuals with risk factors such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or a family history of eye disease should not delay. It is important to remember that if your eye exam reveals a potential health problem, your eye care provider will recommend further testing by a specialist or your primary care provider.

A sporadic issue in Blackboard has been reported that causes some Blackboard-delivered exams to be submitted before they are completed. This issue has impacted a small number of students taking some exams. Blackboard support technicians are continuing to work on this issue. An error statement about no start time can be found at the top of the test access log if this is the test issue.

Students can take exams and quizzes online through Learning Suite on a computer or on most mobile devices. Exams and quizzes can be accessed from the Dashboard page, the Assignments page, the Schedule (including the Combined Schedule), and the Exam tab.

Now, what this does mean is, if your child is able to successfully earn college credit through AP, IB, or CLEP exams, they will save between $345 and $3,243 for each 3-hour class they test out of, minus the cost of the exam, which can range between $74 and $96 each.

It is important to note that the testing fees can also be lower, as some high schools and other programs offer subsidies that decrease the cost. Some schools completely cover the cost of AP or IB exams so it could possibly cost you and your child $0 for a class that could have costed thousands at a university. Not a bad deal.

Ultimately, after paying the exam fee, your student still comes out ahead even if they go to a more affordable school, like a two-year public college, making AP, IB, and CLEP exams incredibly worthwhile.

There is no restriction regarding the number of AP classes and exams your child can take, as long as they can manage the workload, so they have the potential to earn a lot of college credits while they are still in high school.

One important note is that credits are awarded by colleges by relating the exam to a particular class from their course book. Generally, each test can only be equated to one college class and, if two AP exams correlate to the same course, credits are just awarded one time, not twice. The remaining credits could possibly count as electives. This applies to all the exam types we are discussing.

Generally, IB options are not as widely available as AP. For high schoolers that can enroll in IB courses, they have the ability to focus on specific subjects and take exams (similar to how the AP system works) or participate in a diploma program which includes instruction in six subject groups, all of which can result in college credit after passing the exams.

If your child is heading to college or already there, you may be able to (surprisingly) save by negotiating college tuition, check out this article: 5 Steps to Negotiate College Tuition and Save Thousands of Dollars

Personally I do not recall ever having seen any of my final exams I have taken during my undergrad (except in my nightmares). Midterms, quizzes and homeworks are usually returned to the students before the final exam, but I am really curious as to what happens to the final exams after they have been graded.

Are the exams hauled off to a secret storage facility for keepsake? Are they photocopied and kept as a student's permanent confidential academic record (unbeknownst to the student)? Are the exams hastily moved to a recycling facility and turned into fodder for new exams?

I do not believe that my university has any formal policy, though they could have one that I am unaware of. It would seem foolish for a professor to get rid of the exams before the students have had an opportunity to see their grades and respond if something seems out of line.

At our university, the lecturer has to store your exams (along with the original test and answer key) for at least 2 years. This is so that a committee has the possibility of looking at them during an audit, to determine whether the exam was of sufficient level and graded properly. Usually such an audit does not take place and the exams are simply discarded once the lecturer runs out of shelf space.

There is a 30 day period in which students can request a copy of their exams. After these 30 days, even though the exams are stored, they are no longer entitled to this - the storage is purely for the eventuality of an audit.

An out-of-the-way corner of my office contains stacks of final exams from the last few courses I've taught. Students are welcome to stop by my office and retrieve their exams; very few do so, but more than the one in 5000 mentioned by Corvus. We're not supposed to discard the exams until some time (maybe a year, maybe 3, I don't remember offhand) has passed, presumably because students might open a grade appeal process. I generally keep exams longer, but not forever; when that out-of-the-way corner gets too full (and when I notice it) I weed out the oldest exams.

At my institution in the US, materials used for grading are to be kept until after the appeal / change deadline, which one has to look up in the rules, but has been after two quarters. Students can asks for them, because they are "records" which they have a right to. After that, they are to be destroyed (because, by policy, failure to pick it up means they have abandoned their "record"). About two students gave me envelopes to mail the exam to me, a bunch would pop in after grades were posted to get the exam, and maybe a dozen asked for them some time around the start of the next quarter. Because exams have to be kept secret, retaining them indefinitely poses a substantial risk for the institution, so they tend to favor short periods of retention. However, there can be specific state-mandated retention policies which force longer retention; so I suspect there is much variation in how long exams are retained in the US.

At my Alma Mater, and for over 5 years now, all final exams are scanned after grading, and the paper is shredded (not necessarily immediately but pretty quickly I think). Then they all live in infamy on some web server...

After an exam was taken, the secretariat of our institution copies them and sends them to the lecturer in charge of it (some major exams require a second reviser). After grading them, the lecturers have to return the exams to the secretariat which announces the results to the students who failed (passes are only told on request). The graded exam papers (with the lecturer's signature) will be stored in the secretariat for one year after announcing the result as the law gives every student the right to dispute a grade within that time frame.

Theoretically we could dispose of them after that time. In fact, however, it is too much work to regularly scan the students' files for such "expired" exams as there are several smaller and major exams throughout the year. So what's done is normally, that they dispose of all them (but finals, which must be stored a lifetime) one year after the graduation of a student.

@Maroon is right about math exams - typically "In mathematics sequences taught by the same instructor, we simply received the final exam papers in class in the succeeding term" is a reasonable policy. I've gone so far as to hunt students down because then I don't have to find a place to hang on to them, or because I know they'll be happy to see it (especially if the final is a longer take-home exam or a portfolio); we're small, so this is doable. But then again, it's often not so hard for me to change the questions for succeeding offerings of the same course. e24fc04721
