You should bring the following items to the exam room:

• Several sharpened No. 2 pencils (with erasers) for completing multiple-choice answer sheets.

• Pens with black or dark blue ink for completing areas on the exam booklet covers and for free-response questions in most exams.

• Your six-digit school code if you are testing at a school different from the one you regularly. Home-schooled students will be provided with their state or country’s home-school code at the time of the exam.

• A watch that does not have internet access, beep, or have an alarm (in case your exam room does not have a clock that you can see easily).

• Up to two calculators with the necessary capabilities if you are taking an AP Biology, Calculus, Chemistry, Physics, or Statistics Exam. (Visit www.collegeboard.com/ap/calculators to learn more about the calculator policy for each of these exams, and for a list of authorized calculators.)

• A ruler or straightedge only if you are taking an AP Physics Exam. (Protractors are not allowed.)

• A government-issued or school-issued photo ID and your AP Student Pack if you do not attend the school where you are taking the exam.

• Your Social Security number (for U.S. citizens)* for identification purposes (optional). If you provide it, the number will appear on your AP score reports.

• If applicable, your SSD Student Accommodation Letter, which verifies that you have been approved for extended time or another testing accommodation.

*Some colleges and universities use Social Security numbers as student identifiers when assigning AP credit or advanced placement for qualifying AP scores. While the College Board does not require students to provide their Social Security number, they may want to check with the college or university where they are sending scores to see if they prefer for students to provide a Social Security number on their AP Exam answer sheet.

• Electronic equipment (cell phone, smartphone, laptop, tablet computer, etc.), portable listening or recording devices (MP3 player, iPod, etc.), cameras or other photographic equipment, devices that can access the Internet, and any other electronic or communication devices. Unapproved aids: Books, compasses, mechanical pencils, correction fluid, dictionaries, highlighters*, notes or colored pencils.*

• Rulers, straightedges, and protractors (except as noted above).*
