<p>What are AP exams? I do not live in USA and as such AP are not offered from where i come from. We do not have any honors, AP, etc. As i am applying to US universities i think that It might hurt my chances.</p>
<p>Can i also give AP? i searched on net and i want to give AP Calc AB and BC. Moreover i can also give AP Physics, Chemistry. </p>
<p>AP exams are administered by the College Board, the same organization that administers SAT and subject tests. They are generally given only once per year, in May. Many US students take them in their own high school, but some travel to testing centers similar to the way they do SAT and subject tests. You can go to the CB website for more information about when and where these tests are offered. Few international students have AP courses available to them, and almost no international students submit AP exam results. You will not be at a disadvantage without them.</p>
<p>In addition, most schools do not consider AP scores for admissions decisions. AP classes and scores are typically used to place out of courses or get advanced placement in subjects once admitted.</p>
<p>‘Give’ is used many places overseas. So that is usual term for you. It confuses people in the U.S. or they think you have incorrect usage, because we say ‘take an exam’. So if you are going to study in the U.S. you will now know.</p>
<p>Yes, I understood what the OP meant, and that’s why I corrected him/her.</p>
<p>It’s true that when you finish an exam you hand the test paper to someone . . . and if that’s what you want to say, then you’d need to say that you are giving the exam to someone. You can’t just “give an exam” without indicating to whom you are giving it.</p>
<p>And that is not at all the same thing as “taking an exam,” which is the act of sitting and answering the questions. If you plan to attend college in the U.S., you might as well know the proper idiom.</p>
