I know they usually release AP scores in July, but I'm curious about what time of day they typically become available. Is there a specific time I should be refreshing my College Board account once July rolls around?
I've heard rumors that scores might drop at different times depending on your time zone or even which AP tests you've taken. If anyone has experience or advice on timing, it would be super helpful. Thanks in advance!
Your AP scores usually become available online at 8 AM local time in July. You're correct in mentioning that the release date can vary depending on where you live. The College Board follows a specific schedule where they release scores over several days, usually beginning with the East Coast and then progressing to the West Coast.
And as for the specific AP tests, these don't factor into when scores are available. All your scores, regardless of the subject, will be posted at the same time.
Make sure your College Board account is ready and you remember your login credentials. Sometimes the website can be slow or crash due to heavy traffic, but don't worry, your scores aren't going anywhere. Just keep trying at regular intervals, and you'll be able to access your scores eventually.
