ADThis is the first time that AP tests have been given online at home, a result of the shutdown of schools because of the global coronavirus pandemic. But students and parents said that the College Board was blaming the students for the problems when they weren’t responsible. AP tests ordinarily take several hours but this year are being shortened to 45 minutes. The College Board said it had surveyed thousands of students and most of them said they wanted the option of taking at-home AP tests. But some students said they wished the College Board had canceled the AP tests, noting that they were under enough pressure during the covid-19 crisis.
