<p>Advanced Placement Awards - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia</p>
<p>None of the awards are particularly difficult to obtain. The unfortunate part is that most recipients will achieve the milestone at the end of senior year: When college applications have already been sent.</p>
<p>Just getting AP scholar (or even with honor or with distinction) is easily achievable before college application. The basic AP scholar just needs 3 AP with 3 or above in scores. Getting the AP scholar in State and National levels are more difficult.</p>
<p>I only care about my English Lit score. /Really/ want a 5, but I can take a 4 if necessary. (5 gets me out of both English reqs, 4 gets me out of one, but there is a class that I’d love to take so that’s why it’s okay).</p>
<p>If I get a 3 and have to take the basic intro English class I’d probably kill myself.</p>
<p>Also took Bio, Calc, and Comp Gov but I don’t get credit for any of them.</p>
<p>Is the location based on the address we wrote on the answer sheet or our IP address? If it’s based on IP then we could theoretically use a proxy based in any of the east coast states, right?</p>
<p>My thinking is that they will be better able to handle the plethora of score sending reports that they will receive. Specifically since they really want those scores to be received by colleges by July 15.</p>
<p>It is actually because only a small amount of people made/have collegeboard accounts. The site crashes whenever SAT scores are released, so imagine the vast majority of AP students all over the country registering for a CB account right when scores come out. The site would crash almost immediately. This is what that AP Trevor twitter guy said.</p>
<p><em>Braces self for the inevitable crashing of the CollegeBoard site at 5 am on July 5.</em></p>
<p>In all seriousness, I’m kind of freaking out about the scores. My school will reimburse us for the exam if we score a 3 or better, and I’d love to get a check for $356 back. </p>
<p>My Psych teacher was a joke this year was his first time teaching ANY AP class; we didn’t cover what the last FRQ was for World that much; I get nervous when I write anything for APUSH; I think I did alright on English Lang. I just want to know…</p>
<p>It’s not illegal at all. It’s just a way for CollegeBoard to divide network traffic. They couldn’t care less if a few people used proxies to gain access on a different day.</p>
<p>Well, Collegeboard says the early access timeslot is due to the student’s physical location. I guess we’ll have to wait to find out if that means the COMPUTER’S physical location/IP Address or the actual place of residency of the student.
I have a feeling it’s the latter.</p>
<p>“Students will have early access to their scores only during the scheduled date and time for their location. Once the window for a particular location has passed, students in that area will be able to log in again starting July 8 at 5 a.m. EDT.”</p>
<p>“…there will be early access to the online system at scheduled times, based on student location.”</p>
<p>Didn’t see that… Interesting. Yeah by the way he said it, it’s the IP Address that matters</p>
<p>Yeah it’s confirmed. Someone tweeted
“Since I live in Florida, the access date is July 6th, but if i’m in New York that week, can I access them on July 5th?”</p>
<p>He replied
“Yes, the preview period is based on where you are on July 5-7, not where you took the AP Exam.”</p>
