<p>From reading some threads, it seems like most AP tests are administered at the schools themselves.
For our city, the tests are administered at city hall and the local community college...
is our school weird or am I misinterpreting?</p>
<p>The exams at my school are usually held in the library. Not public ones, school ones.</p>
<p>The exams at my school are also held in the library.</p>
<p>At our school, they’re held in the gym, although often, two tests have to go on at once, and our library is used constantly, so they also do it at a church.</p>
<p>In the school’s library.</p>
<p>Most tests are given in the gym. When there are two tests or more, the smaller one is usually given in the media center (library). Also, small ones such as AP Micro (only a few people take it year, since it’s on Florida Virtual School) are given exclusively in the media center. No need to use the gym for that. Foreign language exams/AP Music Theory are given in the auditorium due to a lower amount of echoing and a large amount of room (for the listening and speaking parts). Finally, makeup exams are given in whatever classroom is available. I took my AP Macro makeup in the marine bio teacher’s classroom.</p>
<p>Our school takes the entire class on a bus over to the school district headquarters, which is like 15 minutes away. The only exams taken in the school are the foreign language exams because our language lab has headsets which are used for the listening and speaking sections.</p>
<p>last year, I did two of my ap exams in the computer lab. There was a small number of people taking the exams. The third one was in the gym because there were many people. If you are the only one taking the exam, then you take it in the VP office (I think. all i know it is somewhere in that proximity).</p>
<h2>What if you went to an online school? Would anyone know where tests could be taken? I would assume one would just take them at the nearest public school, but I wanted to verify this.</h2>
<p>Currently though, tests are distributed and taken in my school’s library.</p>
<p>Wartsandall - my exams for my online APs were given like other exams. I have a friend who took AP Gov online, and she still took it with everybody else who took it in school in the gym. I took macro and micro online, courses that aren’t offered at school, and I took those in an empty classroom (I was the only person taking it as a makeup exam) and in the media center with 6 or 7 other kids who took micro.</p>
<p>I have taken 3 exams thus far, with 4 more coming up this next test administration, and each of those 3 were in a different location, believe it or not. I took the AP Euro exam in some obscure Sports Medicine classroom out in the outer limits of my school. I took the APUSH exam in the library, so that’s normal I guess. But AP Eng/Lang, believe it or not, I actually took the exam in my English classroom. The room I had been preparing in for the English exam actually ended up being the room that I took the official exam in. My teacher actually came into the classroom in the middle of the break during the exam to ask how we were doing too :)</p>
<p>Ours are in a “conference room” - basically a lecture hall. Holds a few hundred people - some exams it gets pretty full.</p>
<p>If your teacher came into the room any time during the exam, even during a break, that’s possible grounds for score cancellation and stuff. They aren’t supposed to go in the room at any time.</p>
<p>Some of our tests are at the community college (where all the students from three high schools take the exam at the same time) and some of ours are at the library (exams with too many students to go to the community college and share with other classes). It’s really irritating because they don’t provide transportation… so when you’re taking an exam at the college as a sophomore or a junior (juniors can’t have cars at the high school), what the heck are you supposed to do? Or - god forbid - if you are a senior without a car or license?</p>
