Please see the schedule for important times as testing will begin before the normal school day and transportation will not be provided. ALL students are expected to report on time with their fully charged school-issued Chromebook (with a charging cord) and in their uniform (even Seniors returning after their last day).

Testing Time: Each Advanced Placement exam is a minimum of 3 hours. Exams will begin approximately at the time indicated. If you arrive after the start time, you WILL NOT be able to take the exam and will not be refunded your money, so please plan your transportation in advance; AM and PM testers should arrange for transportation other than the bus on their exam day. 

Make-Up Testing:  There is NO make-up testing offered! If you fail to take an AP Exam that you have been registered for due to absence or lateness, you WILL receive an obligation for the $40 cancellation fee per exam.  Money paid will not be refunded. If you have an emergency or illness on the day of an AP exam, please contact Mrs. Snow as soon as possible at faith.majors@pgcps.org  and naima.reed@pgcps.org. 

YOU CANNOT BE DISMISSED FROM A TESTING ROOM EARLY! If you play a sport or have a job, it is your responsibility to inform your coach or employer of your AP Exam obligation, and arrangements should be made accordingly. All test takers must be dismissed from the testing room at the same time. No one may leave early.

Digital and Hybrid test takers must bring a fully charged Chromebook and charging cord.
