- AP Classroom User Guide for Students: This guide will show you how to use the features of AP Classroom effectively. You need a College Board student account to log into My AP (myap.collegeboard.org) and access AP Classroom. You may already have an account, from registering for SAT tests, viewing AP and PSAT/NMSQT scores, participating in the College Board Opportunity Scholarships program, etc. It’s important that you don’t create multiple College Board accounts. If you’re not sure whether you have a College Board account, they should contact AP Services for Students for verification before attempting to create a new account.
- AP Daily is a series of short, on-demand videos led by experienced AP teachers that covers all course content and skills. Videos can be accessed on YouTube.
- AP Credit Policy Search: Your AP scores could earn you college credit or advanced placement (meaning you could skip certain courses in college). Use this tool to find colleges that offer credit or placement for AP scores.
