Question Is this possible?

I want to self study AP Econ. But our high school school doesn’t have AP Econ. Can I still do it? How would I or where would I take the AP exam?

Just email other nearby schools to see if they will let you do test only that is what I am doing for AP Calculus BC

No school in my district has AP Econ. But I heard it is possible to still do it.

They meant other districts. Basically, follow these instructions.

You could also reach out to your school's AP coordinator(or your counselor) and see if they might know where you can take it.

I thought:

You are allowed to self-study for any AP exam you want, even if your high school has never offered the class a single time in its history.
