AP Exam Schedule – 2024

The 2024 AP Exams are scheduled to take place within schools over a span of two weeks in May: from May 6th to May 10th, and then from May 13th to May 17th.

The task of informing students about the exam schedule and locations falls under the responsibility of AP coordinators. It is important to note that conducting exams before the designated dates or outside the official schedule outlined by the College Board is strictly prohibited. However, for students who are unable to take the exams within the initial two weeks of May, there is an option of late-testing dates.

Late Testing
