AP Seminar Exam

Definition

The AP Seminar Exam is a comprehensive assessment that evaluates students' skills in critical thinking, research, collaboration, and presentation. It consists of two parts: a written exam and a team project and presentation.

Analogy

Think of the AP Seminar Exam as a marathon race. Just like in a marathon, you need to have endurance, strategy, and teamwork to succeed. The written exam is like the first half of the race where you showcase your individual abilities, while the team project and presentation is like the second half where you work together with your teammates to cross the finish line.
