Can I retake an AP Exam?

Applying to College
1

<p>For example, if I got a 2 last year, can I retake it again the year after?</p>

2

<p>Yeah I'd like to know as well. We had THE WORST prompt for the US History DBQ last year.</p>

3

<p>no, no, no. you can take ap tests ONLY ONCE.</p>

4

<p>Are you sure?</p>

5

<p>As far as I know, you can retake the test, but it comes down to whether or not it's worth it.</p>

6

<p>You CAN retake AP tests as long as you are willing to pay for them. You are even allowed to retake a 5 if for some reason you wanted to.</p>

<p>EISD--- I AGREE!! it was SO random. i looked at it and wanted to laugh out loud it was so ridiculous.</p>

8

<p>The sports essay right?</p>

9

<p>AP Euro had the organized sports one. That was pretty easy and fun I thought.</p>

10

<p>I don't remember our essay for US History, but if it was something stupid then I blame that for my 3. :)</p>

11

<p>gah! last year's U.S. history DBQ DID suck. i didn't even know what the question meant, let alone how to answer it. somehow i managed to get a 4 overall though, so it's all good :)</p>

<p>the annoying part was, the week before the test my amazing APUSH teacher decided to have an in-class review about feminism and it's history. and of course, that's the ONE day i had to miss class to do a bake sale. grrrrr.</p>

12

<p>Oh yeah! It was the women's rights issue and the whole cult of domestcity and sphere of influence garbage. I nailed it.</p>

<p>I got a 5. LOL</p>

13

<p>I really liked the DBQ ... our teacher gave it to us about 4 different times in class =D I got a 5, too.</p>

14

<p>I loved the sports DBQ!!!</p>

15

<p>sports DBQ was the only reason i got a 3</p>

<p>i guessed on every MC</p>

16

<p>guys stop getting off topic</p>

17

<p>Ugh, that US History feminism DBQ was HORRIBLE and somewhat ironic considering that our teacher is a somewhat old-fashioned kind of guy that jokes about women, the feminist movement, etc. We didn't exactly spend that much time going over feminist history.</p>

<p>the sports dbq kept me focused. Though, the German failures essay in WWII, economicaly, militarily, and politically saved me.</p>
