AP EXAM REGISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS

The AP Program offers college-level courses that you can take in high school and the opportunity to earn college credit. AP classes at Central High prepare students to take the AP exam at the end of the school year. Students can register to take the AP exam for any AP course they are taking, but they are not required - AP Exams are optional. Students opt to take AP exams because if they earn a qualifying score, students can earn college credit or placement. Learn more about college credit or placement here: AP Credit Policy Search 

AP exams are always given the first 2 full weeks in May, at PCH. 2025 AP Exam Schedule: 2025 AP Exam Dates
