WE RECOMMEND MASKS TO BE WORN DURING THESE EXAMS
You must provide your Penn ID to take the exams. Students are advised to arrive 10 minutes early.
Students who take a credit exam and demonstrate high levels of proficiency can receive credit for the corresponding course. Note that the standard for passing the credit exam is not determined until after the exam is given, but will be substantially higher than the pass/fail standard encountered when taking the course.
For those who pass, the results of the placement exams will be posted to your transcripts by the Registrar once the Math Dept has verified and completed processing the results. Please allow 3 weeks from the second exam date for your credits to be posted. Students who pass the credit exam will be informed within 2-3 days of the first exam date. Makeup exam results will be graded and reported to students by their Spring course professor and could take longer. The second day of exams is open to all UPenn students and will be available in person only. We advise students to use our old final exams posted on our "Undergraduate Webpage" to prepare for the exam (www.math.upenn.edu)
Students registered with SDS will take their makeup or credit exams with the Students Disabilities Office in David Rittenhouse Labs, 33rd & Walnut Street., 4th floor, room 4E9 on 8/24 (Freshmen only) and 9/5 (all Upenn students) from 5 to 9 pm (based on SDS time allowance). Here is the link to register sds-test@vpul.upenn.edu. You will not be able to take a second AP exam due to time & room constraints. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Freshman students taking their credit exams on Thursday, August 24th will be able to take a second credit exam (which must be taken in sequential order based on the exam you passed on the first day of exams).
Postponed Makeup Exam Takers: IF YOU HAVE A CONFLICT WITH THE EXAM DATE, CONTACT YOUR SPRING INSTRUCTOR TO MAKE ALTERNATE ARRANGEMENTS ASAP.
Note: If you did not take a final exam and received an "incomplete" grade from the previous semester for any math course, you should contact your course professor and register below.

You will receive 1 unit of AP credit for each exam you pass (no grade will be posted).
The credit exams are pass/fail, if you pass (getting 80% or more correct), just the AP credit will show up on your transcript. It doesn't affect your GPA. If you fail, you can take the credit exam again the next semester that it is given. Failed AP attempts will not appear on your transcript. Our placement exams are given during the Fall and Spring semesters only.
