Update: April 3, 20202
Update from College Board regarding AP Exams
For the 2019–20 exam administration only, students can take a 45-minute online exam at home. Beginning on Wednesday, March 25, students and teachers can attend free, live AP review courses, delivered by AP teachers from across the country.
It appears that AP Art exams will consist of 3 submitted works (instead of 5). Computer Science Principles will have an online task instead of a multiple-choice exam.
The College Board surveyed 18,000 AP students and 91% indicated they want to complete this important step, urging them not to cancel their AP Exams. The AP Program will invest heavily over the next month in the following ways:
•For the 2019-20 exam administration only, students can take a 45-minute online exam at home.
•Each AP subject will have two different testing dates so students can choose when they want to take the exam.
•The exam will only include topics and skills most AP teachers already covered in class by early March.
•The exam questions are designed in ways that prevent cheating. We use a range of digital security tools and techniques, including plagiarism detection software, to protect the integrity of the exams.
•Students will be able to take these streamlined exams on any device they have access to—computer, tablet, or smartphone. Taking a photo of handwritten work will also be an option.
