3 on AP???

Applying to College
1

I received a 3 on my AP physics 1 exam last year but I was wondering if it was still worth it to send to colleges. I would really like to apply to Ivy League schools, but since the score is so low I feel like it would only harm my application. But if I don’t send it in with my other AP scores (majority 5s, 2 4s), colleges will still know that I took the exam and most likely assume that I did poorly (which I did).

I’m also trying to make up for this low score by taking the AP Physics C class my senior year. What advice could you possibly give? I would appreciate anything,

Ivy leagues, no. Other schools maybe (though the vast majority do NOT consider APs for admission). See if any schools on your list give credit for a 3.

Thank you!
