It seems that FIRST and the College Board should have exactly the same overall incentives here and given the high % of FIRST participants taking the AP (and the SAT), that the College Board should be more than willing to work with FIRST toward a solution.

Other spring sports (e.g., baseball, track, etc.) are able to work with the AP testing schedule. We should be able to do the same.
I'm not sure testing at/during Champs is the best idea for the students. I know I would have a very hard time focusing on my exams.
