AP STUDENTS – IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The first session of AP testing takes place simultaneously worldwide, between May 13 and May 27. Here is the schedule. For students in Vietnam, this means 01:00 am, and 03:00 am Vietnam time.
Thus, AP students will not be required to attend their classes on the day of their assigned exams. Nor will AP students need to attend their last block on the day before the exam.
(Example: An AP student has a Calculus AB, or BC exam on May 13 at 01:00 am. He/She will not be required to attend his/her last block on May 12, nor any classes on May 13. Students will either be exempted from or given ample extension time for work missed during missed class times.)
We know that the hours of the AP exams are not ideal for students in this part of the world; however, remember that this is an excellent opportunity for you to earn university credit and enhance your university applications. Think about how much you have overcome thus far. You can do this!
