skimomma Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Forgive my ignorance on this one. This will be dd's first, and probably only, AP exam. I have a logistical question about it. Are the essay portions hand-written or typed on a computer? Dd is used to putting her thoughts into words using a computer and also does not really have the hand stamina for lots of writing at one time. If we know that it will be hand-written, she will now start working on stamina and organizing thoughts without editable typing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caroline Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Unless she has an accommodation from College Board, it will be hand written. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G5052 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Hand-written unless you have a College Board-approved accommodation to type. A know a great kid with a variety of documented physical challenges, and he typed several AP's. It's not something that is easy to get approval for though.

skimomma Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share Posted September 28, 2017 Thanks! Good to know. I don't think dd has any grounds to apply for an accommodation. I just wanted to know so she could start to work on it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East Coast Sue Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Yes, lots of hand writing for AP exams. It's exhausting. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
