AP Exam Irregularity - Urgent Question

<p>There was an incident last year at a local high school where all students had to retake their AP exams later in the summer (that’s when I believe retakes happen)—only because there was a reported break-in to the room where they stored the exams. That was a very unfortunate situation.</p>

<p>But my point is, your situation definitely doesn’t seem to warrant as severe of a consequence. As everyone has already said, the worst that could happen is the cancelling of only your score, and no one else.</p>

<p>They would schedule an alternate retake time and place for you where you would take a different form of the same subject test with just you and the proctor in the room.</p>

<p>Thank you very much for the information guys :)</p>

<p>I hope you won’t get offended by this and I certainly do not mean any form of offense, but is all of this information based off of experience… or a document or…?</p>

<p>^I think they’re basing it off what they’ve seen/read happening at various schools in various cases.</p>

<p>Hmm, so the consequences vary by school?</p>

<p>Bump. Filler.</p>

<p>Your actions fall under section 3:

I believe normal procedure would be to cancel your score. However, the regulations state that:

Section 4 (Testing irregularities) is the only area that specifically mentions retakes…which makes sense, given that the students are not responsible for faulty administration.</p>

<p>I think you’ll just have to wait and see.</p>

<p>Thank you very much for the information.</p>

Hey the same exact thing happened to me and I was wondering if your score actually did get cancelled or not. Did it?
