So, AP Tests are coming up, and what kind of AP tests (if any) do you guys have?You can't take the two tests at the same time... unless you mean that you're taking AP Calculus BC, which encompasses AP Calculus AB in material and whose test provides an AB subscore as well.
I'll take on May 8th AP Calculus AB and BC
Because stats sucks. period.I thought Statistics was pretty good.
IDK, my calc teacher just says its some kind of double-testCalculus BC encompasses both exams, and thus you can get credit for both courses in college. You get both a full score and an AB subscore. It seems strange that your teacher hasn’t told you more about the exam.

You just do late testing or some other special procedure. All three of the Physics exams are at the same time on the same day, but I will be taking Physics C a week and a half after the day it is supposed to be taken. So you could probably sign up for both of the tests, and look like an idiot to you teacher. You are probably allowed to sign up for every test, and look like an idiot to the school.

I am taking German, Government, Economics, Computer Science, Calculus BC, Physics B and both C exams, Psychology, and LiteratureThat are A LOT of tests O.O

You can only get scores online this year.Seriousley? Not even after paying some extra-fee they won't send it you? This sucks :(
What happens to people who neither have Internet, 3G nor access to a public wifi or Internet place? O.O
That sucks D:, did they tell you at the very last minute or is it possible to know in advance if a college will take them?Most colleges have their AP acceptance policies online. Some are more ambiguous than others. But the problem for me was having no idea where I wanted to go, so I took the tests to be safe.
I took fourteen AP exams over the first three years of high school, and none this year. Why? Because college doesn't take it.At least in my school, there are many reasons other than college credit to take APs.
Which means I wasted over $1,200 on AP exams already :P
So yeah, to those of you in your first years of high school—see if the colleges you plan to attend actually accept AP scores, and in which subjects. It varies a lot by school.Spoiler For My scores:
But the actual AP exams are optional (at my school, don't know about yours), so I could have just chosen not to take them.I took fourteen AP exams over the first three years of high school, and none this year.

1. They are weighted by a factor of 1.06 in the GPA, so if you want to be ranked well, you have to take lots of APs.
2. Our AP classes tend to have better teachers than other normal classes.
3. If you want to be with smart classmates, APs are where you find them.
