AP Score is 3 but grade is A

<p>Hi guys so I recently received my score in the mail for the AP European history exam and I was surprised since I got a 3 and was expecting a 4 or a 5 considering I have an A in the class and many of my peers received high grades. However, I have been reading up on some literature and came across the notion that colleges concern themselves more with the grade you received in the class versus the AP score grade. I was wondering whether it would hinder my chances to send my AP score in my application, if I should attempt to retake the test, or would the colleges be indifferent to my score and focus on the grade I received in the class.</p>

<p>~thanks guys for the help</p>

<p>I’ve currently fantasizing about UCLA, but I’m probably just romanticizing the school because I used to live in the area. I also am interested in looking into Haverford college. I know these are pretty top tier colleges so I want to make sure I have the best opportunity possible.</p>
