It has been officially announced by The College Board that AP Exams are canceled for the 2026 examination year.

The reason? A group of students, armed with rulers, pens and study guides, have raided College Board headquarters and destroyed the files containing the tests and their answer keys. Many AP Computer Science Principles and AP Computer Science A students have also “put their knowledge to good use” and hacked into the official website, deleting all of their documents. 

The College Board had never anticipated that someone would even think about doing such a thing, so they had no backup files. Students across the country have been totally blindsided by the news. This was quickly followed by extreme joy. Unfortunately, The College Board announced that even though there will be no exams for this year, it is currently exploring other ways to stress students out. The time to celebrate may sadly be short lived.

“I’M SO HAPPY!!!!!!!! I CAN’T DEAL WITH THESE AP’S ANYMORE! I HOPE THEY DO THE SAME WITH REGENTS,” a random sophomore said.

Rumor has it that the students who went on this raid were from NHP Memorial High School. Names were not disclosed, but there is speculation that it was mostly the school’s juniors. There has been a rumor that the juniors were originally meeting up as a study group to prepare for these exams, but then, one of them came up with this idea.

“I think I know who the leader might be…but I can’t say anything. I’m not trying to get beat up,” an anonymous freshman said.

“It’s great but now it feels like I wasted precious hours of my life studying for these exams. I don’t even remember what sleep and sunlight feels like anymore. They BETTER not come up with some crazy exam alternative,” said an AP Chemistry student.

Teachers, meanwhile, are scrambling to adjust to these sudden changes.

“I had an entire review packet planned,” said one AP World History teacher, holding back tears. “It was 6,767 pages long. Now what am I supposed to do?”

No matter what stress-inducing bombshell The College Board decides to throw at us next to make up for the exams, everyone can agree that this was the most productive group project of all time.
