<p>Yeah, I know, but I convinced son to try appealing anyway. They said if he didn't appeal, it will be cancelled. A teacher who talked to him about it at the time, and someone he consulted with said it would "probably be okay."</p>
<p>How did you get into the exam room with the kindle? LOL my teacher outside the room wouldn’t hold my phone for me going into the room so i had to bring it to my locker >.< but yeah you really should have known not to have anything but the pencil its plastered in the AP rules booklet /:</p>
<p>rules specifically state that if you have any electronic devices with you during the testing period, it can warrant immediate expulsion from the testing room along with scores being cancelled.</p>
<p>Umm…the booklet and the proctor’s reading says you may not read a book, and you may not use an electronic device. Your son did both. There’s no sense in appealing.</p>
<p>I wouldn’t recommend appealing. I would recommend, however, that your son b***hslap the person that reported this (after he graduates, of course).</p>

<p>“LOL Your son was reading from a kindle when he finished the exam? Epic fail tbh. Definitely deserves a cancelled score.”</p>

<p>“How would you even argue that? The directions are clear and I personally had them read to me by EVERY single one of my teachers.”</p>
<p>"still laughing. Particularly at the person who said “it would probably be okay.”</p>
<p>“Yeah you probably shouldn’t”</p>
<p>“I wouldn’t recommend appealing. I would recommend, however, that your son b***hslap the person that reported this (after he graduates, of course).”</p>
<p>"Yeah… not sure how you’re going to argue this one. He couldn’t have waited until after he was out of the testing room? "</p>
<hr>
<p>I know; right?</p>
<p>Successful appeal! .</p>
<p>PS: This is not a school used to doing AP’s. Oh, and graduated 6/2011.</p>
<p>We’re talking about Kindle with 3G, from which you can purchase any book online and have it within seconds on your Kindle? Really?! The school must be really naive about what a Kindle can do.
But good for you, and I hope your son was really just reading.</p>

<p>Naive? thats being very nice about it…
I really don’t want to think that it would be that easy to get a score cancellation rescinded. Just pure ignorance on both ends. and i REALLY REALLY hope he was JUST reading…</p>
