<p>Do AP awards help with admissions? At my school, I'm the only Junior with AP Scholar w/ Distinction. Actually, no junior in my school has more than AP Scholar...</p>
<p>...will that help me at all? Even though my GPA isn't top 1%, I'm the only one in my school who has challenged himself to the extent that I self studied 5 exams...</p>
<p>yeah, i heard it looks good if you put it on "awards and honors" of your common app or something..good job!</p>
<p>what AP's did you self study, and what did you get in them?</p>
<p>Self study: </p>
<p>English Language - 5
English Lit - 4<br>
Computer Science A - 3</p>
<p>:P</p>
<p>good job!</p>
<p>but otherwise, yeah, the awards do help (:</p>
<p>Good point. I guess an AP award, if high enough, is good to put on an awards section of an app</p>
