AP Exams for admissions?

<p>So, I have a peculiar predicament. I took 3 AP's this year at my school and got the following grades: </p>

<p>AP Calc AB: B
AP Stats: B+
AP Chem: C</p>

<p>but I got a 5 AB subscore on the BC test, 5 on the stats exam, and 5 on the chem exam. Also, I self studied a bunch of tests and got 3s, 4s, and 5s (5 english language, 4 english lit, 3 computer science A). </p>

<p>Now I'm wondering, will my AP grades help compensate for my school grades somewhat in admissions or no? Will the fact I self-studied a bunch help me, too?</p>

<p>i would think that your ap scores would help compensate and that self studying will help you... i mean of course they would rather see an A and a 5 but still.</p>

<p>on the other hand they could take it as you were a slacker in the class.</p>
