Advanced Placement (AP) Japanese Language and Culture (also known as AP Japanese) is a course offered by the College Board as part of the Advanced Placement Program in the United States.
The class was first given as a certified College Board program in the 2006–07 school year.
Preparations for the corresponding test were made, but the complex computer and internet requirements were not fully sorted out by administration time, and the exam was not given in some areas.
[citation needed] Similar to the AP Chinese Language and Culture test, the exam is taken on a computer, requiring participants to read, write, and speak in Japanese, utilizing computers, headphones, and microphones.
Section I Students must answer multiple choice questions in response to audio prompts and short texts.
