Over the next two weeks student sign-up for Advance Placement (AP) exams which take place this coming May.
If students are currently taking the IB Math SL2/AP Calculus course at ISB they are expected to sign up and take the AP Calculus AB exam. For students in IB Math HL2, they have been prepared for the AP Calculus AB exam and they have been partially prepared for the majority of the AP Calculus BC exam, and with a little extra individual work on their part, can be fully prepared for this BC exam. Please note, the CollegeBoard stipulates that students cannot take both the Calculus AB and BC exams in the same year. Any students in other ISB Math classes are not prepared by ISB and we recommend they do not take the AP math exams.
Students should collect an AP exam form and information from Ms. Canobie’s secretary, Khun Arintra. They must then see their counselor to discuss the workload implications of taking these exams.
Registration for AP exams must be handed into the Dean of Academics office no later than Friday 2nd February.
