AP Exam Make Up Dates?

Hey, I might not be able to take my AP exams on the scheduled dates due to some personal reasons. How does the AP exam makeup process work and is there anything I need to be aware of? Thanks a bunch!

Hey! I understand that sometimes personal circumstances can interfere with AP exam schedules. The good news is that the College Board does offer late testing, also known as makeup testing, for students who are unable to take the exams on the regular dates. Late testing usually takes place within a couple of weeks after the main exam.

To request late testing, you should speak with your school's AP coordinator as soon as possible. They will be able to provide you with specific information about makeup dates and deadlines. Keep in mind that there might be additional fees for late testing, although some exceptions may apply, such as for certain religious observances.

Lastly, if you're planning to use your AP exam scores for college admissions purposes, it's good to know that makeup testing typically doesn't cause significant delays in score reporting. However, it's still a good idea to double check with the college or university to ensure they will receive and consider your scores in time.

Best of luck with your exams, and I hope the makeup process goes smoothly for you!
