AP Exam Review Mr. Walstead: I will administer the first half of the exam (37 questions – 45 minute time limit) on Monday 4/24 AND Tuesday 4/25, 3:45 – 5:00 pm. This will give us time to score and discuss the answers. Both days are the same, so you would only need to make it to one. I will do the second half of the exam Monday 5/1 AND Tuesday 5/2, 3:45 – 5:00pm  Dr. Maloney: First half of exam Wednesday, May 26 and Thursday, May 27, 3:45 – 5:00 pm and second half, Wednesday, May 3, in 512 Please fill out this form, so I have an idea of how many of you will be attending.
