AP Psychology Exam 2020

Hi everyone!

I don’t know if you have gotten something like this from another AP teacher (if you have one, obviously), but here’s my effort to explain what will be happening in the coming weeks.

Further information can be found here:

You'll receive your e-ticket by email two days before each test.
You'll get a unique ticket for each exam you’re registered for.
You can also access your e-ticket in your student account on My AP (myap.collegeboard.org).
Each e-ticket is personalized for YOU and isn't transferrable.
DON’T SHARE your e-ticket with anyone—you could lose your chance to test.
The AP Program can't accept any additional exam registrations for this year's online, at-home exams.
Make sure to save your May e-ticket email in case you need to request a makeup exam.

It won’t be more difficult to earn a 3, 4, or 5 this year. Even if an exam question seems more difficult to you than you expected, don’t worry—difficult questions require fewer points to earn 3s, 4s, and 5s than easier questions require. So this year’s scores will be very similar to prior years’ scores. Just stay calm, read each part of the question, and simply show what you know and can do within the time you have.
AP Exams are never graded on a curve—and this year’s exams are no different. You’re not competing against any other students. There’s no maximum or minimum number of students who can receive a specific score. All students who earn the required points will get scores of 3, 4, or 5 this year.
Don't worry if you don't complete all parts of the question before you need to attach and submit your response. To give students as many different chances to demonstrate what they know as possible, a question may have more parts than can be answered in the allowed time. You don't need to complete the entire question to get a score of 5, but you do need to submit whatever work you've done.
