<p>Well since I started this thread I may as well use it…</p>
<p>Should I send my score report? I have: Stat (5) Chem, Calc BC, APUSH, World History (all 4), Spanish Lang (2)</p>
<p>All of them are on my commonapp except spanish. Will sending all of them help or hurt? My other numbers are better than these scores (2340 and 800 x2 on subject tests) so I probably won’t send them unless you guys think it will help. Thanks. :)</p>
<p>It may help, certainly won’t hurt. You can pay the collegeboard to “suppress” your Spanish score if you want for an additional fee and it will not be sent to UR.</p>
<p>We never sent AP scores officially with any app nor do other applicants I know. They go directly to the school one chooses to attend if one is taking a senior AP test and chooses that school as your freebie. If you aren’t taking any senior year, then you would have to send them to the school you choose to attend, but it can wait until then.</p>
<p>Schools seem to accept self-reporting of AP for admissions (unlike ACT/SAT, etc). URoc definitely did. If a school wanted to see an official report, I suppose they would ask for it.</p>
<p>Not to differ with you Creekland, but UR did want my son to send official AP scores for them to be checked off on that list they use on the website to monitor what has arrived. They would not take self reported scores even though he had obviously taken the AP class.</p>
<p>Are you talking the application stage? If so, I wonder why they had different “necessities” for different students…</p>
<p>We never sent AP scores to any of the schools my guy applied to (and he made it in to all but one ‘lottery’ school where he was waitlisted). URoc only got the official ones after his senior test was taken and all scores were sent. At that time, he chose them as his “free” listing when he took his AP test and all scores were sent along, not just the last one.</p>
<p>If there is, indeed, a difference, perhaps someone can explain why?</p>
<p>Yes, in the application stage so scores from AP tests taken in 11th grade. When you would go online there was a checklist of things that the student had done eg interview, family/friend recommendation etc. There was an line for AP tests taken I believe. </p>
<p>In order for that line to get a check, UR needed to see the official scores.
It is not required to send them, they were an optional addition, but it seemed worthwhile to have one more thing checked off on the list.</p>
<p>Yeah it’s one of the optional supplementary things. But they won’t consider your AP scores unless you send an official report, if you want them considered. Thanks Lakemom I guess I’ll send them then.</p>
<p>You probably don’t need them then. My guy got in with merit aid, etc, without anything “official.” Like you, he had high stats otherwise. Scores were on our transcript, so I can’t imagine they didn’t consider them if they wanted to do so.</p>
<p>Creekland, I called. UR would not consider them even if I sent the report that the collegeboard sent us. Our school does not have AP score on the transcripts as many do not. It certainly wasn’t a deal killer for admission, just something extra so why not. UR was the only school we paid to send them to.</p>
<p>Lakemom - it’s good to clear it up! Thanks!</p>
