What about AP Exams that allow or require the use of calculators?

The calculator policy for the 2025 AP Exams remains the same. Students can use an approved personal or school-provided calculator on AP Exams that allow or require the use of calculators.  

For the following 12 digital AP Exams, students can also use the built-in Desmos graphing calculator through Bluebook: 

  • Biology 
  • Calculus AB  
  • Calculus BC  
  • Chemistry  
  • Environmental Science 
  • Macroeconomics 
  • Microeconomics  
  • Physics 1: Algebra-Based  
  • Physics 2: Algebra-Based  
  • Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism  
  • Physics C: Mechanics
  • Precalculus  

Note: Desmos is not available for the AP Statistics Exam, as it doesn’t currently have the required statistics computational capabilities described in the AP Statistics Course and Exam Description.
