The AP Art and Design: 2-D Art and Design exam assesses a student's ability to develop a cohesive, inquiry-based body of work and articulate their artistic decisions. Unlike traditional exams, it is a portfolio-based assessment submitted digitally. The portfolio consists of two main sections: the Sustained Investigation (60% of the score), which documents a year-long exploration of a personal theme through 15 digital images and written commentary, and the Selected Works (40% of the score), which showcases five high-quality artworks demonstrating mastery of 2-D design principles like composition, unity, and emphasis. The exam evaluates not just technical skill, but also conceptual development, process, revision, and the ability to engage with materials and ideas meaningfully. It is designed for students who have completed a rigorous high school course in studio art or have equivalent experience and are ready to work with the independence of a college-level artist.
