AP Exams 

AP exam fees will be due by the end of January for all students wishing to take the AP exams. The fees are $86 per test and there are no refunds. The AP exams will be administered in May according to the schedule posted at http://www.collegeboard.com/.

Students who pass AP courses earn one point of GPA weight when they complete the official AP exam (students who elect not to take the AP exams only earn one-half a point GPA weight). All students participating in AP classes will sign an intent to test/not test when they return to school in January.

If an AP test in ordered, but not taken, there is an additional fee charged to the student. If multiple tests are needed (for example, a junior might wish to take exams for AP US history and AP literature/composition) each test carries an $86 fee.

If there are any questions, please contact Doris Brewton at dbrewton@bcbe.org or 928-4495 ext.2. All money should be sent to the book keeper to be receipted.
