College Board has released more information on the AP Exam this year as of last weekend:
- The exams will only include topics and skills most AP teachers and students have already covered in class by early March.
- Like many college-level exams, this year's AP Exams will be open book/open note.
- Most exams will have one or two free-response questions, and each question is timed separately. Students will need to write and submit their responses within the allotted time for each question.
- For most subjects, the exams will be 45 minutes long, and include an additional 5 minutes for uploading. Students will need to access the online testing system 30 minutes early to get set up.
- Students will be able to take exams on any device they have access to—computer, tablet, or smartphone. They will be able to either type and upload their responses or write responses by hand and submit a photo via their cell phone.
- Students taking AP world language and culture exams will complete two spoken tasks consistent with free-response questions three and four on the current AP Exam; written responses will not be required. There will be more details provided in the coming weeks to help students prepare.
We will continue to monitor the changes closely and share the updates. Join our Line Official Account (@mqz4477g) or subscribe to our newsletter to get the first hand news.

Reminders from TrinityScholar
- Since this is a new test format for us all, we don’t know if there will be any tech issue during the test. We strongly recommend all students to take precautions that they should sign in earlier than the scheduled time to confirm everything’s good. If anything went wrong, make sure you attend the alternative test.
- Using 2 to 3 questions to test the students’ understanding about the subject is challenging. This means the question might cover concepts from various chapters and the students need to have a better overall understanding to write sufficient answers. Make sure you go over all previous Free Response questions carefully and watch the Online AP Courses when you have the chance. They might give you more idea about how to write your answer.
- College Board also provides free, on demand Online AP Courses, sharing teachings from US teachers, try your best to watch them and discuss with your tutor. They are the test makers, information shared by them should be able to give you more insight about the tests.
- The testing schedule is extremely challenging to Taiwanese students as all tests are scheduled from mid-night to early morning Taiwan time. It is crucial to make sure you don’t get the date/time wrong and have sufficient rest the day before. Below is the schedule with Taiwan time.
- Don’t worry too much if you would do well on this test. The situation applies to not only you but all students who are taking the exams this year. Just do your best and you’ll be fine.
