Our AP Subject Experts have advanced degrees in the subjects that they teach, and they particularly enjoy the focus and depth involved in helping students succeed in AP courses and AP Exams. Compass AP instructors are among the most experienced in the industry, averaging over 1,000 tutoring hours and leading hundreds of students to 4s and 5s each year! Engaging, positive role models, they make learning strategies and reviewing content fun and demonstrate how to strategically accumulate points.
The AP Practice Test Package comes with one mid-year checkpoint assessment and three full-length practice AP Exams. Students will take these digital* practice tests on their own time** and submit their answers for grading. Score reports will include an estimated 1-5 scaled score† as well as detailed Free Response Question scoring and feedback from our expertly-trained readers.
The checkpoint is designed to be taken after the first semester, as it only tests the material from the first half of the academic year. One of the full practice tests should be taken in March and the other two in April, though there is no specific testing deadline. Grading turnaround time is estimated to be 1 week. Rolling practice test submission is permitted though grading will not start until January.
*Physical tests & answer booklets can be printed and mailed for an additional $50 fee. Option can be selected when registering.
**Proctoring may be available on select weekends.
†Estimated score not applicable for the mid-year checkpoint assessment.
Each Group Review AP Prep package consists of ten 90-minute webinars from October through April, for a total of 15 hours of review/instruction. Sessions are led by a Compass subject specialist and will meet once per month from October to March (six sessions) and then weekly in April (four sessions). Students will also be given access to recordings of all ten webinars, regardless of when they register.
Registration includes the corresponding AP Practice Test Package. View available subjects, and full schedules below.

For both the Practice Test Packages and the Group Review Students, practice tests are self-administered. Once complete, students can submit their practice tests for grading and feedback.
Grading will generally take about 1 week. Score reports will include an estimated 1-5 scaled score as well as detailed Free Response Question scoring and feedback from our expertly-trained readers. Please note that the mid-year checkpoint assessment does not include an estimated 1-5 scaled score.
All Group Review sessions are recorded and will be available to registered students within 1-2 business days of the sessions.
Our Group Review sessions are conducted as webinars. While we do not limit the number of students in our sessions, our experienced instructors are adept at delivering engaging learning sessions and fielding questions from the group. Participation levels vary depending on the popularity of the AP subject. In the past, we have seen 20-100 students register and attend the sessions live.
Our 1-on-1 package does not include any explicit practice test or grading services, though students are eligible for a 20% discount on AP Practice Test packages (or Group Reviews, which includes Practice Tests). The 1-on-1 tutoring package is intended to provide students with completely personalized help on their AP courses or any other academic curriculum. Tutors will be happy to spend time reviewing practice tests that their student takes, whether it is through a Compass AP Practice Test package or elsewhere.
