Assessment/Testing

2021 AP Exams

The 2021 AP exams will match the traditional, published exam descriptions- colleges expect the AP exam to cover the full spectrum of the corresponding AP course.

Given the uncertainties of the 2020-21 school year, some students may feel unsure about taking AP Exams in May. So that students feel comfortable registering by the fall deadline, this year there will be no fees whatsoever if a student decides not to test or to cancel their exams. Every AP student should keep their options open by registering for the exam on time because there will still be a $40 fee for late orders.

 Registering for a 2021 AP Exam

UPDATED to reflect the current FBISD dual learning model master schedule.

VERY IMPORTANT: Particularly during the 2020-21 school year, the student should continue to monitor and confirm that the AP exam order status in their MyAP account through College Board accurately reflects the AP exams ordered. No AP exam will be ordered that is not reflected in MyAP. It is the student’s responsibility to notify the AP coordinator immediately if they believe there is an error.

Steps to Ordering an AP Exam:

• Students being taught by an AP Teacher from the home campus in a traditional AP course with end of course exam
  • Use the specific class section join code to enroll in the teacher’s AP Classroom to access all AP resources
  • Change the exam status from “undecided” to “yes”
  • Pay the corresponding AP exam fee through the school webstore

• Students enrolled in a traditional AP course with an end of course exam being taught by a teacher at a different campus than the student’s home campus
  • Use the specific class section join code to enroll in the teacher’s AP Classroom to access all AP resources
  • Do NOT change the exam status inside AP Classroom (this will order the exam to be taken at the teacher’s home campus, not the student’s)
  • Contact the AP Coordinator at the student’s home campus and use the specific join code to enroll in the “Exam Only” section for the course at the student’s home campus.

• Student who is unable to enroll in AP Classroom to order an exam
