Just a tangent here.... as I was reading about the dd who's taking AP tests this week I looked to see who had posted this....and when I saw it was you I realized that I'm pretty sure I remember when she was born! ![:shocked:](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/JvSt42CUoZ9LG952aAaF.jpg) Wow. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/OrTI4SBmZ2ZYSFv6ag4f.jpg) --- Good luck to her! WE go back a long way! LOL She's looking at colleges now! U of MD, Penn State, OSU are all top contenders! ![](http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r481/2peasrefugees/Smilies/thud.gif)

Crap. My DD is taking AP Human Geo today. I better go review what we're supposed to do if they have technical issues.

I called the college board this morning in another unsuccessful attempt to have them change ds’s exam from AB to BC calculus. There was a recorded message that said if you experienced significant technical difficulties to submit a request to make up the exam in June.

My son got through his Human Geography and got his answers submitted. It took a while to get logged in to where he needed to be, but I think he was just fighting everyone else to get in.

I AM OVER IT! Question 2 wouldn't load. Probably lost question 1 when he finally reloaded page which they're explicitly told not to do, but with it hanging for 15 minutes and only 15 minutes left what the hell was he supposed to do. And the good news is he has 3 more exams and my daughter has 2. Wish they would have done what IB did and just cancel the damn things. The email that we got said if there technical issues that could affect your score to let them know and you could re-take.

Having collected a bunch of anecdotes, anyone with a kid taking an exam, do not submit answers in the last minute or two. Lots and lots of time out tears. It looks like my son may be okay based on his coordinator. I couldn't get through to CollegeBoard and frankly don't care enough to spend the hours doing it.

My son did AP Human Geo today and didn’t have any issues. His teacher had everyone log in early and he submitted his answers with 5 min left to try to avoid the last second “rush”
For our first AP Test, it was ok.

Honestly the chance that he'll stay on top of preparing and do better in June is significantly smaller than the impact of 50% time. It is what it is at this point. Hoping his other exams go more smoothly.

My daughter takes AP Chem on Thurs. and AP US History Fri. She is so nervous! My husband took off work this week to get stuff done around the house. It will be good having him around if she has issues. I am worthless with anything involving any technology!

No problems with today's test. I think today was Physics. Tomorrow is Lit.

DS took calculus today, no technical issues. He thinks some of the exams are only 1 question. If that’s true, how does the college board think 1 question is a fair evaluation of a year long class?

Ugh. My son has 3 tests next week. I guess we better get as much situated here as we possibly can. What a nightmare for these kids
