AP Exam Registration -- now underway (1/5/10)

Registration for the May 2010 AP examination session opens Monday, February 8, 2010 and runs through Monday, March 15. Student fees for 2010 are $86 per exam, payable by check to Portage Northern. The AP exam window for this year is May 3-14, with late testing dates (for conflicts with IB exams) on May 19-21. Exams for the AP courses taught at Northern include:

Date	Morning (8 a.m.)	Afternoon (12 noon)
Monday, May 3	AP U.S. Government and Politics
Tuesday, May 4		AP Statistics
Wednesday, May 5	Calculus AB
Tuesday, May 11		AP Psychology

It is important to note that each of these exams conflicts with at least one IB (International Baccalaureate) exam, so if students wish to sit for both exams, they will register for the AP exam under the “Late Testing” category when they turn in their registration form. To accommodate the international program, the College Board offers alternate test dates to resolve scheduling problems. The most common AP/IB conflicts for this year are apt to be:

AP Exam:	Conflicts with IB Exam…	Alternate AP test date:
U.S. Government and Politics	English A1 HL, paper 1	Friday, May 22, morning
Statistics	IB math SL, paper 1 IB math studies SL, paper 2	Wednesday, May 19, morning
Calculus AB & BC	IB math SL, paper 2 IB math studies, paper 2	Thursday, May 20, morning
Psychology	Chemistry HL, papers 1 & 2	Friday, May 21, morning

Neither the IBO nor the College Board permits changes in test date beyond those described above, so students should plan carefully to ensure that their AP registrations do not conflict with other activities/events in which they are involved in May.

AP exam registration forms are available in the AP coordinator’s office, 3F (adjacent to room 310). Please refer all questions to the IB/AP coordinator, Mrs. Linda Trepanier, at ltrepanier@portageps.org or at 323-5474 after 10:30 AM.
