My son was warned last year that AP CS AB was vanishing and therefore also took it this year. It was important for him since he learned the material outside of high school and needs to show mastery to move forward to college level CS this coming year. But I can well understand cutting it. It’s a labor-intensive test to develop and grade.
I would be surprised if there was a AP MVC - it would seem to me that the numbers would be very small - and from what I know, most kids doing math at that level take it at a college/university anyway.
A historical question - was there ever an AP Classical Greek? Given the roots of AP , it would seem likely, but I can’t find any information along these lines.
(I see Classical Greek having a bit of a resurgence in high school these days, but I’m sure the numbers are still very low indeed.)
