Score Cancelled!

<p>For reading kindle after done. </p>

<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>Has my one successfully appealed?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>In the exam room?</p>

<p>Was the test one that will give useful credit at the university he is attending?</p>

<p>Yes, in the exam room, and no; not likely to get useful credit. We would be THRILLED if he gets a three.</p>

<p>someone TEACHER 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>LOL Your son was reading from a kindle when he finished the exam? Epic fail tbh. Definitely deserves a cancelled score.</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>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>I guess that would be a no…</p>

<p>Yeah you probably shouldn’t.</p>

<p>Don’t even bother 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>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>

<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>Can I just say… EPIC WIN.</p>

<p>Agreed!..and yes, you may!</p>

<p>I’m going to call ■■■■■ on this one. College Board never appeals anything. They’re as stubborn as a mule.</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>
