Students Report Problems Submitting Online AP Tests | NBC News NOW

You’re telling me that my friends (plural) are apart of that 1% and I know others who had problems as well. CollegeBoard is lying with everything. 💀

She forgot how they're actually meant for profit instead of from their kind heart to help students. Because even though the test is significantly shorten with unreasonable conditions they're still charging the same rent equivalent prices.

I need therapy after these tests are done

[shannons]

Yeah but guess who’s in the “1%” for my apush exam?? I am SO FRUSTRATED and collegeboard has been absolutely no help!!! All my hard work was literally washed down the drain in two seconds because my attachment wouldn’t submit

[illunisam]

"small minority" and "1%" when multiple students in my 30 person AP calc class can't submit. I managed to submit mine, but college board blaming the students is really showing their immaturity and greed.

Recently, I have run a poll on reddit concerning the same topic if failed submissions. I encountered the submit error, where you spam submit for 5:00 minutes and it doesn’t. The poll on Reddit has had 1170 participants thus far, and of those participants 558 users couldn’t submit due to college boards technology error. That equates to 47.69%, not anything near the one percent. College board is requiring us to re take their exam because their own mistakes which is unjust and unfair. I’m not doing twice the amount of work and stress because they can’t figure out technology.

I seriously had no idea till about 3 months ago that pencils, chalkboards and books have completely disappeared from the classrooms …..

I don't even plan on taking AP exams, but my prayers go out to the students that failed to submit their completed work during the last few minutes/seconds 🙏

[zacharytrudell]

I've got my first AP exam today. So let's hope that this goes well. I hope that nothing bad happens but with all the tech issues my friends had.... Mm...

[sammybouzaglo]

I took the Apush exam on Friday and I had some wifi problems and could not turn it in, so now I have to take the makeup, and then I learn that with the second week exams you have the option to turn it in through email if you have problems during the exam, this made me so mad like you could have thought about it and you could have implemented the email option for both weeks. 😡

[guerlandemompremierworld]

Same thing happened to my daughter. Sad day for our children today

[jbobko]

If regents and other tests were canceled, they should have at the very least postponed these exams....

[tbtv]

Less than 1% is still a ton of students

[kateimasuen]

This happened to be there was an error in the system cause my whole class of sophomore not being able to take the exam we are all still crying

[AffyMoon]

My test keeps crashing and teachers can't do anything so rip my grades I guess

[ardennorthridge]

I couldn’t submit my exam so did a lot of my other friends

[oah]

I hope the students don't submit the answers they already had because that would mean they had more time to perfect t it which is unfair to the students who submitted on time.
