通知：2022年中国大陆AP考试取消且不再补考！

大学理事会一直密切关注上海等中国城市的疫情防控情况以及AP 考试面临的挑战，也不断与 AP考务合作方普尔文公司及举办考试的学校商讨各种应急方案，为 AP考场能正常运行尝试了各种努力，也考虑了将AP考试推迟到 5 月的最后两周的可行性。

遗憾的是，因为疫情以及相应防控措施，部分考点无法在5月按计划如期举行AP考试。经过慎重考虑，鉴于国内疫情的形势变化、影响规模和诸多不确定性，我们将无法提供补考的选择。 我们为这一决定可能会对努力了一年准备这次考试的学生产生的影响感到非常遗憾。

因考点被迫关闭而无法参加考试的学生将直接从普尔文获得考试费退款。 今年无法考试的学生可以选择明年参加考试。 如果学生今年高中毕业并将升入海外高校，可以考虑参加大学水平考试 (CLEP)。

大学理事会正在积极与国际高校就中国 AP 考试遇到的挑战进行沟通，并呼吁他们为受影响的学生提供尽可能多的灵活性。 无法提交今年的AP 考试成绩以获得入学或学分的学生，可以向高校招生办公室提交一封来自大学理事会证明当地AP考试取消的信函，该信函将在 5 月考试结束后可以从ap-china.org网站下载。

部分AP学科没有学期末统一的考试——AP 艺术与设计（绘图Drawing、2D、3D）和 AP 研究论文(Research) ——如果考生在截止日期前提交作品集，仍然可以获得 AP 考试成绩。

本通知为最终决定，大学理事会客服及任何部门无法提供更多信息和协助，深表遗憾。

本通知也将在大学理事会网页ap-china.org上公布。

Q: 为什么5月后不能提供AP补考

A:鉴于新冠疫情在中国的持续影响规模，我们无法在5月后安排全国范围的AP补考。有很多不确定因素，例如大规模聚集的批准，考试场地和工作人员安排，学校重新开放线下教学，以及考试材料能否没有暂停或滞留的正常运达，以上诸多情况都使得我们无法计划实施AP补考。

Q: AP是否提供基于作业的预测评估或分数？

A:不提供。学生必须通过参加AP考试才能获得分数。

Q:我可以推迟考试吗？

A:按照当地的考试报名政策和程序，学生可以在2022年秋季通过学校或者考点报名参加2023年5月的AP考试。

Q:今年可以在家参加AP网考吗？

A:不可以。2020年和2021年由于全球疫情的影响，学生在家网考是临时解决方案。随着今年世界大部分地区恢复线下教学，AP考试也恢复到了传统的纸笔模式。

Q:考生将如何收到考试退款？

A:因考点关闭而无法参加考试的学生会收到考点或者学校的退款通知。退款流程将在AP考试结束后通知到学校。

College Board 2022 AP Testing in Mainland China: May Update

College Board is closely monitoring COVID restrictions in Shanghai and other Chinese cities and the challenge they pose for AP testing. We have been working with our test administration partners at Prometric to try to keep test centers open, and with schools to reschedule their exams to the last two weeks of May when feasible.

Unfortunately, widespread COVID restrictions will prevent some locations from testing in May, and we are not able to provide a makeup option given the scale and uncertainty of the situation in China. We regret the impact that this decision may have on students who have worked hard all year to prepare for this opportunity.

Students who are unable to test due to test center closures may receive a refund directly from Prometric. Students who are unable to test this year may choose to take an exam next year. If they’ve graduated from high school, they can consider taking a College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) exam.

We are proactively communicating with higher education institutions about the challenges with AP testing in China and calling on them to extend as much flexibility as possible to these students. Students unable to submit AP Exam scores for admissions or credit will be able to provide university admission offices with a letter from College Board verifying local exam cancellations, available on ap-china.org after May exams have concluded.

AP subjects that do not have an end-of-course exam – AP Art and Design (Drawing, 2D, 3D) and AP Research – can receive an AP score if the student’s portfolio work was submitted by the exam deadline.

Please note that this decision is final, and College Board Customer Service does not have additional information and unfortunately will not be able to assist.

This information is also posted on College Board’s AP in China page (ap-china.org).

Q: Why can’t there be makeup AP Exams after May?

A: We are unable to schedule a national makeup window after May due to the scale of ongoing COVID disruptions in China. The lack of certainty about when large gatherings will be permitted, when testing locations and staff will be available, when schools may reopen for in-person learning, and when exam materials could be delivered without service disruptions and hold times make it impossible to plan a makeup exam administration.

Q: Does AP offer predictive scoring or scores based on schoolwork

A: No. To receive an AP score, a student must take the AP Exam.

Q: Can I defer or postpone my exam?

A: Students can test next year by registering for May 2023 exams when registration opens in fall 2022 at their school or test centers (follow local registration policies and procedures).

Q: Are at-home digital AP Exams available this year?

A: No. At-home digital testing was always designed as temporary solution during the worldwide coronavirus disruptions in 2020 and 2021. With the return of in-person learning for the majority of the world this year, AP Exams returned to their traditional administration

Q: How and when will I receive a refund?

A: Students who are unable to test due to closures may receive a refund directly from their school or test center. Any refund details will be provided after the AP exams are over.
