Agree, it isn't last minute, plenty of time (he hasn't even learned half the material, lol). Great news that he's an A student, that matters way more than AP scores for college admissions. SAT also matters more, I would use the time to do SAT prep instead. And only do 2-3 AP sessions closer to the test to help with test anxiety. Good luck! I know this is a stressful process but it all works out. He will land at the right college. He sounds like a focused mature kid.

It is not last minute, it is January - you have until May. Read all the other threads on top kids not even getting into top schools. Chill out.

Drop the self-studied exams. You are adding to his stress level for no good reason.

DS is a junior and is taking 3 AP tests (Bio, US His, AB Calc) and 2 additional (English and Psych) that he is self-studying for. He is at a private and never taken AP tests before this year b/c of the way our courses are set up. He is bright and has ADHD and we need some kind of supplemental tutoring. He's an A-student with test anxiety and having this many long-term tests is stressful (he does better on quizzes than on tests at school, for instance). Can anyone recommend a tutoring center/resources that would have tutors who could meet with him 2-3 times for (not to teach the material, but to help strategize and feel more comfortable)? We have a number of trips to visit colleges, and he's saying he can't go b/c he has to study for AP tests.

(I know I can search on Wyzant for class-specific tutors but I don't have the time to do trial-and-error; that will be a last option).
