<p>I'm very confused. I somehow got a 2 on english lit and im very good at english. I really thought I did well. Is there anyway they messed up? Last year I got a 4 on AP lang...</p>

<p>Why did you take the AP Lit exam after passing the AP Lang exam? At most colleges, you can only get units for one or the other.</p>

<p>^ our school makes us to get the weight on our GPA… I got double A both semesters and an A on my IB oral so I know I deserved better than a 2… it rly bothers me for some reason. even though i know it doesnt matter, i dont fail…anything :(. im not a bad english student either even though i wanna be a math major. i predicted a 4 or 5 on this exam…</p>

<p>You can always get the MC rescored by hand. I think it costs about $25, but if it means that much to you and you think there’s a chance you didn’t use a dark enough pencil, go for it.</p>

<p>Good luck! :)</p>

<p>actually that’s the point of the two exams, some colleges take one, others take the other.</p>

<p>most schools i applied to only accepted credit for ap lit.</p>

<p>Strangely, my college (Pepperdine) offers credit for the lit GE requirement for 4 and 5 on AP lang (I got a 3) and only elective credit for a 4 or 5 on AP lit. I’m feeling another 3, but I don’t know yet. For UCs, you have to pass both tests for credit, and hours depend on scores.</p>

<p>swim2daend…if it will make a difference at the school you plan to go to, I’d ask for a handscoring. That sounds pretty odd…</p>

<p>At D’s public U, getting 5’s on both gets you 9 hours of credit, and you place out of the first two English classes, as well as general credit for 3 more hours in Languages.</p>

<p>Look at the grade distribution. English Lit is one of the harder tests to score highly on. It was the lowest out of all my AP scores.</p>

<p>hmmm im gonna think about rescoring it. Honestly, it bothers me, but im not sure enough. I mean, I took it as a junior (my school puts IB students a year ahead in english…) so I could always retake it. I’ll think about whether or not it’s worth 25 bucks</p>

<p>Wow your school forces you to take the AP test so you can keep weighted grades? I’ve never heard of that.</p>
