Students are failing AP tests because the College Board can’t handle HEIC images

Someone at the College Board just needs to write a few lines of code to convert HEIC images to JPEG, instead of forcing thousands (if not more) students to retake the test.

On Ubuntu, you can:

        sudo apt-get install libheif-examples
        heif-convert infile.heif outfile.jpg

Based on the article, it sounds like the College Board did actually receive the test files from these students. The students were emailed that the files were "corrupted". So in all honesty, this is just a matter of them actually just converting the files they've received then (or using an image viewer that can handled HEIC.)
