3 AP Exams or SAT?

I am almost ready to submit my application to NYU CAS and I am wondering whether I should submit my SAT score or 3 AP exam scores.

My SAT subsection score are both 700.

My AP Exam Scores are:
AP Lang - 4
APES - 4
AP Psych - 5
APUSH - 3
AP Human - 5
AP World - 4

I don’t know which would look better. I would probably submit AP Lang, APES, and AP Psych for the given sections.

Would the 4, 4, and 5 look better or worse than the 1400?

I would submit the SAT score as it’s within their range.

APES and Psych are not typically considered particularly rigorous.

I’d agree with the above post. I’d also tend to only submit APs anyway if they were all 5s (unless the SAT was below NYU’s 25th percentile, which yours isn’t) but I agree that they are not the “best” APs to present either.
