It's here! The APES exam - we have had a most unusual semester, but it's time for you to show what you know. Please know I am thinking of you ALL and wishing you success and no stress!
**Remember, write clearly, explain yourself. BE SPECIFIC about your answers. Stuff like "it's not good for the environment" will not work.
** Have a notes sheet, one pager, packets, anything you can look at briefly during the exam. It's open-note. Be aware, the type of questions asked will not be questions you can google answers to. Be careful of having lots of tabs open, you might make a mistake and close your test browser.
** Copy and paste might be the best way to go, but do what is comfortable and you know. Make sure your browser is up to date.
** Just do your best and try it. You have nothing to lose. You've got this.
** Be aware of the rules so you do not do anything that will violate or cancel your score.
** Have a plan for how you access the test, and how you will submit. Read through the following document:

**LAST MINUTE UPDATE- if you have some kind of technical problem submitting your answer and the test ends, College Board will let you email them your response directly after the test. This is their message:
Beginning Monday, May 18, and continuing through the makeup window, there will be a backup email submission process for browser-based exams.
This option will only be available for students who were not able to submit in the standard process—and they must then email their responses immediately following their exam.
These students will see instructions about how to email their response on the page that says, "We Did Not Receive Your Response." The email address that appears on this page will be unique to each student.
I'm SO PROUD of all of you, and I know you will do well!
