College Board will unlock any relevant free-response questions in AP Classroom for digital use so students may access all practice questions of the type that will appear on the exam.
There will be 2 different testing dates that will be announced; students may choose their date; work with your AP Teacher on their suggestion as to the date you should select
AP will continue to support students with free resources through exam day on AP Classroom. While we encourage students to wait until close to the test date to decide, any student already registered for an exam can choose to cancel at no charge.
