AP Exams

<p>I'm a bit confused about how AP exams affect admissions- my school doesn't offer many APs so I'm taking them for the first time this year. Let's say that hypothetically I receive a 1 on all of my exams. Will this affect my offer for admission to NYU in any way? Do they even care what my scores are? Can I simply not indicate NYU as the school to send scores to on the day of the exam and then send scores later if I receive good marks?</p>

<p>reporting ap scores are optional. you don't send your official ap scores unless you are going to attend a school, otherwise there's usually a spot on your application to schools for optional ap scores. and nyu will know your school doesn't offer many aps so they will know you didn't have a chance to take 10 ap classes like a lot of other kids on CC.</p>

<p>I guess I should clarify.. I've been accepted to NYU and will attend. Is reporting scores still optional?</p>

<p>i have the exact same question about reporting the scores next year (im a junior and my school offers no ap's)</p>

<p>if I get a horrible score on an AP test and I have already committed to a school could they rescind admission?</p>

<p>or what if i took the AP class but im not going to take the test?</p>

<p>AP scores don't affect admissions.</p>

<p>I'll be honest, I didn't do well on my AP tests... I got 1s on both of the ones I took so far (there were reasons though - don't worry). I got into Stern.</p>

<p>I'm taking two more this year and I expect to do well.</p>

<p>do you guys know if it's possible to cancel specific scores? or is it all or nothing?</p>

<p>"if I get a horrible score on an AP test and I have already committed to a school could they rescind admission?"</p>

<p>Yeah, this is what I'm wondering. Will NYU rescind my admittance if I do badly? (I've committed to attend) Is it necessary to even send scores to NYU if they're not going to earn you any credits?</p>

<p>NYU will not rescind your admission based on AP scores. But a bad gpa could do the job.
You don't even need to send in the scores to NYU.</p>

<p>you dont have to send in scores if you won't receive credit [4s or 5s] and you can choose to send certain scores and withhold others [for a fee] etc.</p>

<p>According to the NYU site, AP scores do not affect admission, nor will they rescind your application based on poor grades. (You just won't get credit for them).</p>

<p>hey..i know im butting into this thread and im sorry, but im a little worried about NYU possibly taking back their offer of admission. I sent in my deposit to CAS, but im worried about poor second semester grades affecting their decision. They only see semester grades...so the lowest one of those will be a C in calculus (use to be a B) and POSSIBLY a C+ in biology...but other than that all B's maybe 1 A....anyways...my question is...how badly do i have to do for them to withrawal their offer of admission. Any thoughts would be appreciated...thanks
