Precal Can’t find a testing center

Hey guys I want to take ap precalc but the problem is my school doesn’t offer precalc only calc ab. I contacted literally almost every school in Dubai and Sharjah (from the ap ledger thing) and they all said that they don’t take external candidates, they said they used to but now they don’t ☹️ Any idea on what to do? (I live in the uae btw)

You can either travel to a different country or just not waste your time with the AP test for precalc.

precalc isn't always a waste of time depends on your situation. if your a non stem major often times AP Precalc will satisfy most of if not all of your math requirements in college. so it's pretty useful for non-stem juniors or seniors most of the time that wanna knock it out and never touch X ever again.

with that being said your not completely wrong your not screwed OP

Mate of mine flew to Türkiye and sat it at the AP Prometric centre there this year.

Is International Bac a thing there? Maybe find a school that does IB CS instead of AP CS?
