Ever since signing up for the AP tests, the students of B-CC have gotten emails about the test every single week. Like all self respecting students, we have learned to ignore it. For the poor souls who didn’t ignore it, they have noticed a strange email that wasn’t like the usual spam. The email stated the following:
“Good morning B-CC, Due to the extreme turn out at mental health week we have decided that all students are prepared for their AP exams. We have decided to reschedule them for next Tuesday. Have a great day, from the very in-touch administration of MCPS.”
Soon, the word spread in a few hours and seemed to be bouncing around the halls. Our team interviewed junior Alvan Precious about the rescheduling. “We didn’t go to the mental health fair to feel better about ourselves, we went for the oreos!” His statement seems to be correct, as a happy student is very hard to find after the emails.
The only people who are happy about this change are teachers. “Since the tests are next week we won’t need to teach the kids anything for the rest of the year!” said AP Government teacher Mr. Smith. When asked what they will do during class, the most popular responses were reading fortunes, playing games, and going on purge-esque snack hunts.
Students’ grades have been lowering. Senior Ivan Della Kore has a theory to explain this: “They don’t have time to study for anything besides their AP classes. Meanwhile Non-AP students see the grades of people in AP falling causing them to believe that they could balance an AP class along with normal classes!”
AP class enrollment has increased more than ever causing MCPS to announce that they will be moving the exam date every year ending with the message: “Because you all are so smart and we are afraid we are still not challenging you, the AP exam will now be up to each student to find, via a countrywide treasure hunt.”
