Testing AP/IB

 Hello AP and IB Testers!

All that is necessary to prepare you for your exam day is accessible online. Below you will find a number of links with helpful information. As a tester, there are many things you need to be aware of, but one we’d like to especially impress upon you is DO NOT BE LATE to your exam.  

Necessary Information to Access

The one thing you MUST read is the AP Exam Terms and Conditions as you will sign a statement when you take your exam that states you have done so. This replaces the Bulletin for AP Students and Parents that was issued with previous examination sessions.  AP Exam Terms and Conditions 

In addition to the AP Exam Terms and Conditions, students should familiarize themselves with the AP Exam Calculator Policy, What to Bring on Exam Day, as well as any other relevant information from the AP Exam Policies and Guidelines. 

Your testing schedule and just about everything else can be found by accessing your College Board account. The internal school calendar is listed below. Please follow it accordingly and pay special attention to when to report for exams. 

Time and Location

Below is the combined AP/IB Exam Schedule. Please take note of the arrival time for both AM and PM tests. Some morning exams may unexpectedly take longer than anticipated which will delay the beginning of afternoon exams. Please be patient if this is the case. Locations are subject to change and will be communicated beforehand if necessary.

The duration of exams listed below are of the actual exam itself and does not include check-in, instructions, breaks, or post-exam collection of materials.

  • AP students are not allowed to leave the examination room once they have completed their exam. 

And, of course, DO NOT BE LATE to your exam.

General AP and IB Exam regulations 

  • Going to the restroom during the examination is not recommended. If a restroom break becomes necessary, students need to be aware that no extra time will be given for the exam. 
  • Electronic devices are not permitted at any time during the examination. This would include cell phones, smartwatches, and any portable computer devices. Cell phones will need to be completely turned off during the examination. These all must be stored in your backpack. 
  • Bring your own calculator to any exam that a calculator is authorized.
  • Students must enter the testing room quietly

IB Exam Testers

  • Unlike AP, IB does not offer makeup exams. If you miss the exam, you’ve missed your opportunity to take the exam. 
  • IB students are allowed to leave the examination room once they have completed their exam unless the time is within the first hour or the last 15 minutes of the exam.
  • If you are unable to be at school to take your exam for any reason, please contact Carrie Faltysek or Courtney Vacarro.
  • All IB exams are written in blue or black ink. Gel pens of any color are not permitted. Pencils are only used on Paper 1 of science exams, and or used for graphs, diagrams, or charts.
