What happens if I can't take the AP test on a certain day?

<p>So. Here's the problem. High school tennis regionals are on the day of AP Micro/Macro Economics. And since I have to take two tests, I'm going to miss the entire day. So...how exactly do I go about making up tests?</p>

<p>There are make-up dates for AP Tests. (I think 1 to 2 weeks later). Your hs AP coordinator (or guidance counselor) should be able to help you get them scheduled. D has a schedule full of AP courses this year, and has to take 2 of them "late", because she's double-booked twice! It's bad to have to drag out the AP process later (especially when all your friends are done earlier), but it's not a big deal.</p>

<p>The dates are listed on the Collegeboard website. It's around the 17th or so. You also get your results a bit later (Late July or August, I believe) and you can't order a photocopy of your Free Response Answers if you test late.</p>

<p>I'm not sure that College Board will grant a waiver and/or alternate exam for a tennis tournament. I could be wrong, but generally speaking the circumstances have to be pretty dire. For example, there has to be a medically verifiable illness or injury or a court summons or death in the immediate family. Those are just examples not necessarily the literal interpretation of College Board's policy. I'm just trying to give you an idea of the type of circumstances that allow you to take an alternate exam.</p>

<p>As long as your counselor asks for the alternates, Collegeboard will send them. I don't think they even verify excuses.</p>

<p>This isn't true. Last year, I tested late and didn't even have to state a reason.</p>

<p>just talk to ur counselor about ur situation and that person will contact collegeboard to let u take the test on another day</p>

<p>I need to take the AP Euro test on a different day too, but I've heard that it's more difficult. Does anyone know if this is true?</p>

<p>It's not true, but everyone believes it's true.</p>
