Test Preparation
1

<p>I got a 3 on US history, i thought I did better than that i got a 740 on us history on sat2's so do u think i should have it rescored..... i'm kinda angry about chem because i gota 4...</p>

<p>hey. i probably got a 2.
because that is my life -
not quite failure but in the same category.</p>

3

<p>i mean will this really hurt me because i have another 3 from AP euro, but i mean i really felt a lot better about this test!</p>

<p>You shouldn't compare AP scores to SAT 2 scores for history subjects. The essays on the APs could make or break your grade. The SAT2s only grade based upon multiple choice questions.</p>

<p>Now if you are confident you did very well on the essays, then go ahead and pay for the hand-scoring.</p>

5

<p>did anyone do the rescore service and get a better score??</p>

6

<p>Has anyone gotten this done, and then gotten better grades?</p>

7

<p>it seems that others did not do as well as they would have liked on ap united states history.</p>

8

<p>I am not so sure.... I got an 800 on the sat 2 and that corresponded with my 5 on the ap. I write terrible essays and the third one, about the immagrants, I totally messed up on.</p>

9

<p>so do u think i should get the rescore thing?</p>

<p>haha i got a 600 on US HIstory SAT II and a 4 on AP U.S. History-- i'm random like that. But I hate history so its all good. I have no idea why i took the SAT II.</p>

<p>Unless you think that there was a scanning error with their multiple choice machine then no. They don't re-do the essays anyway so thats not in order. If you did a lot of erasing that may have been read as a double mark that a human will be able to differentiate, then yes. There have been some who have had a change in grades but most dont get any diffrence. Its usually just another way for college board to make money on upset students.</p>

<p>Other people who got 700+ got 4s and they were disappointed. I hate history too, I'm expecting a 2. You're right, unless you screwed up on M/C...just accept your score and move on. I swear for most schools, APs are meant to help you. But no one seems to believe me. Colleges like the fact that you ATTEMPTED the class and the test. Take it easy, and get the whole "rescore" out of your mind. Now. Go enjoy summer or something.</p>

<p>lol ... thanks... yea i'm kinda over the fact that I'm not good at all subjects!</p>
