Browser Plugins
Some browser plugins may not allow you to select your subject and sections, therefore preventing you from viewing your reports. If switching browsers doesn’t resolve this issue, disable or uninstall your extensions and try running your report again. If you’re using Chrome, you can also try opening an incognito window to run your report—this automatically disables any plugins. In Firefox, restart the browser in Safe Mode by selecting “Restart with Add-ons Disabled” from the Help menu.

Network Settings
Some users may experience issues accessing reports if they are logged in while on a school network that blocks College Board content. Please ensure that your school network's filter allows for all College Board content by including the wildcard "*.collegeboard.org" in the list of accepted URLs.
