AP Awards

<p>I know folks have been posting for several weeks that they have received notification about their AP score awards - the AP Scholar type stuff.</p>

<p>Has anyone that is pretty sure they fit one of the award categories not received notification yet? College board said they will not discuss the awards over the phone, we have to wait for the mail notification.</p>

<p>Anyone out there still waiting?</p>

<p>Yes, one child received awards, the other didn't yet - same household!</p>

<p>we JUST got ours, like 5 minutes ago....D sent in an application already, so whatever....don't think the title ads anything to the scores the schools see anyway</p>

<p>It doesn't.</p>

<p>Yeah, my daughter should have ""AP Scholar with Distinction" but we haven't received anything. </p>

<p>After the fiasco with grading this past summer, I was just grateful that my d's tests were scored properly and transmitted to her college in a timely manner.</p>

<p>Considering my son's ACT scores were the last ones to be scored in the country last year (took 9 weeks) ...anything is possible.</p>

<p>My son received a duplicate of an award he received last year, plus a new one for this year in the same envelope. We've no idea why CB sent a duplicate.</p>

<p>Ours arrived today. Of course it was wrong, since mathson forgot to put in his SS# last time he took the test so they have him as two separated kids.</p>

<p>Son has 4 5's on his 4 AP tests and has heard nothing yet from College Board.</p>

<p>Thanks everyone. Other students in our neighborhood have already received theirs. I guess they are not mailed by regions.</p>

<p>DD got hers yesterday. We live in Tennessee.</p>

<p>twinmom: Same thing here. My daughter received her certificate on Saturday, byt my son has not.</p>

<p>DS got his in the mail yesterday (Maryland)</p>

<p>D's GC saw me at a Volleyball game and told me that D's were in but we have received nothing at the ranch.</p>

<p>We haven't heard anything either, and son has taken 7 APs, scoring 5 on each.</p>

<p>Got my son's yesterday and he has been in college since August...whatever typical college board.</p>

<p>but in the grand scheme of things, does a college kid care about the paperwork from HS?</p>

<p>college kid doesn't care but if he had not already known the award levels and put down the AP award before he got the letter he wouldn't have put it on his college apps...so my advice would be to figure out which award level your kid is and put it on the app..don't wait for the letter. It might come 6-9 months too late.</p>

<p>For college applications, kids can only put down the awards based on AP tests taken through Junior year. Awards based on Senior year tests are obviously going to be too late to matter in the college application game.</p>

<p>Received the other twin's awards today - two weeks after we received the first twin's!</p>
