What to Know About Digital AP Exams


Digital exams are the future of AP testing: They remove the need to manage paper exam booklets on exam day and reduce the risk of exam security issues and lost exam responses.

If you are not enrolled in one of our AP courses, and still wish to take the AP exam, please be aware of the following:

- Taking/passing an AP exam without taking its corresponding AP course will not be considered as meeting ESUHSD graduation requirements.

- UC/CSU and private universities pose limits on the number of AP courses and/or AP exams they will award college credit for. Please refer to the guidelines of the universities you are applying to so you are aware of their policies.

- There is a direct positive correlation and benefit to taking the AP course. Students who have taken the corresponding AP course are more likely to pass the AP exam than students who do not.

- As it pertains to the calculation of GPA, The UC system assigns extra grade points for successfully completing UC approved Advanced Placement courses, not AP exams.

- For community college courses, the final exam in a college course is equivalent to the AP exam in an AP course; there is no need to take both exams.

- Taking an AP exam without taking its corresponding AP course is not recommended by our educational institution.


If you would still like to register for an AP exam without taking the course, “exam only”, please be aware that we are bound by space constraints in order to have a safe, effective and compliant testing environment. Therefore, priority for AP exams is given to students who are taking/enrolled in the exam’s corresponding AP course at EVHS.
