College Board/AP test update
The College Board announced today that the AP Physics 1 test will only include Sections 1-7, which means we only have to complete Section 7 (Rotational Dynamics and Motion) and then move to Section 6 (Simple Harmonic Motion). The tests will be 45 minute, online tests that can be taken from home. They state: “Test security is a concern,” and provide the following pointers:
- The exam questions are designed and administered in ways that prevent cheating; we use a range of digital security tools and techniques, including plagiarism detection software, to protect the integrity of the exams.
- Scoring at-home work for an AP Exam is not new to the AP Program. For years the AP Program has received and scored at-home student work as part of the exams for the AP Computer Science Principles and AP Capstone courses.

We will continue to study all section of the curriculum after we have finished 1-7, and reviewed for the test, but this material will not be on the AP test.
