Taylor Swift Makes Cameo On High School Students' Year-End Exam

RACHEL MARTIN, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Rachel Martin. History, policy, American institutions - all topics you might expect on the AP U.S. Government and Politics exam. One you might not anticipate - a free response question about Taylor Swift. CNN reports that the surprise prompt put a smile on some students' faces. And hey, even if they didn't score well, they could always just, you know, shake it off.

TAYLOR SWIFT: (Singing) Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake - shake it off, shake it off.

MARTIN: It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
