[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My junior regularly takes tests that are longer than 45 minutes. The one year he had math in the daily 45 minute block, the tests were spread over 2 days. Which fine, but really opens up even further opportunities for cheating which is already a problem. For the AP classes that involve writing, it's impossible to do writing tasks as given on the AP test in 45 min. Meaning if your exam is a DBQ or LEQ, when are you ever practicing these or being tested on this? I wonder how HB handles this. [/quote] [b]Over 45 min math test? At APS? That’s ridiculous. [/b] Aren’t AP writing tasks not “write all this in 90 minutes in one passage”, but multiple sections? We have had APs for decades, and I’m sure it’s a solvable problem. [/quote] Comments like these are so puzzling to me. It's like the no one has homework and everyone gets an A posters. Do you even have kids in high school taking most rigorous classes? [/quote]
