Exam Schedule

The College Board has released several updates to the AP testing schedule for this spring. The College Board determines what tests will be offered on which days and at what time of the day. They also determine the testing format. After much consideration, Wayzata High School is prioritizing in-person paper/pencil exams as the best option for our students and will follow the College Board's posted schedule for Exam Administration 1, with a few exceptions which are highlighted in the schedule below.
Exam Administration Paper/Pencil - in person at either WHS or Medina Ballroom
