AP exams will be administered at ICS May 1 – 11. Please reference the chart below for the exact date and time of your AP exam. Exam dates and times can also be found by logging into your College Board account. The length of the AP test varies by subject, but plan for approximately 3 hours of actual testing time. There is one 10-minute break during the exam. You may bring water and a small snack to consume during the break.
Attendance
Students who opted out of an AP exam must attend their regular classes on the day of the AP exam. Students taking AP exams are NOT required to attend their regular classes the day(s) of their AP exam(s). You may leave after your morning exam or arrive later in the day for your afternoon exam. Students will be marked “present” when they arrive to take their scheduled exam. If you decide to remain at school before or after your exam, you must attend your regularly scheduled classes. We will not have an area for you to wait. Please make arrangements for transportation to and from AP exams. Students departing after exams should use the Atrium for departure.

- Students will not be dismissed until the exam has officially ended. Students should not ask to leave early if they finish before the end of the test. The request will be denied.
