Update to Exam Submission Process
Beginning Monday, May 18, and continuing through the late-June exception testing window, there will be a backup email submission process for browser-based exams.
Submitting Your Response
After you finish answering the exam question(s), you’ll attach your work to the exam and submit it for scoring. How do you do that? That depends.
Most Exams
For most AP Exams without portfolio components, you can attach a text file, attach a photo of your handwritten work, or copy and paste text in the exam.
Music Theory
For the AP Music Theory Exam, you must submit an audio file as well as a photo of handwritten work.
World Languages
To take any spoken AP world language exam, you’ll use a free app that records and submits your response.
