<p>So guys, I am having a bit of a dilemma. I had AP physics test a week or so ago, and I definitely got a 1 on it. I did not study for it at all because I reasoned that I could just hide my score and that it won't affect me much. Tomorrow, I have my IB psychology test, so I was thinking the same. However, my conscience keeps telling me to study, although I could take it easy and catch up on homework. What do you guys think? Will getting 1s on AP/IB exams (and just hiding them) hurt my chances at top colleges? My friends have gotten into top schools and they hid their low scores.</p>
<p>Some colleges will ask on your applications to list all of your AP and IB scores. If you plan to tell the truth, you will have to list them. Also, your high school transcript will identify these as AP and IB courses, right? So schools will want to know the score–and won’t your transcript show at least the IB score?</p>
<p>Getting a 1 on ur IB Psych exam will make ineligible for the IB diploma. study for it. it actually determines whether or not u get ur diploma!!</p>
<p>1) For many schools you don’t have to tell them your scores. If you’re applying to schools which require you to list them all, you may want to put some effort into it lol.</p>
<p>2) You may wish to gain college credit (though if it’s SL it probably won’t be accepted most places).</p>
<p>3) If you want your IB Diploma, you’re going to need more than a 1. Though from what I’ve heard, you have to really try to get a 1.</p>
<p>I had IB Geography yesterday and today. I didn’t study but feel really good about it (6, maybe 5). I don’t know how IB Sike compares, but I wouldn’t kill yourself studying, just review the material.</p>
