AP Scores

<p>I used to have the impression that we could send UCLA all our AP scores from junior AND senior year all at once after taking this years tests (of course before the July 15th deadline). </p>

<p>However, it came to my attention that there is a May 10th writing examination of some kind which needs your AP score in English in order to skip or test out of. So, should I send in last years AP scores now so I don't have to take that test or do they just rely on the unofficial scores we posted on our applications to have us meet the exam's requirements?</p>

<p>Just didn't want to have to use collegeboard twice to send in APs unless completely necessary. Thanks in advance for your responses.</p>

<p>I had that same question.</p>

<p>I spoke to my college counselor and he suggested sending in the scores now. That would give UCLA the verification to skip out on the exam. Then after you take the AP tests this year, you would send it in the second time. </p>

<p>Hope this helps!</p>

<p>We already sent in our scores when we applied in Nov. 07. Thus, they have our freshman-junior year AP scores already...</p>

<p>Speaking of AP scores for the writing examination, would we have to send our SAT scores again if we're using the SAT writing score as fulfillment for the exam? (Sorry if this is off-topic)</p>

<p>I don't think so, they have our SAT scores on record.</p>

<p>Amarantine, thank you for the response, although everyone else is either contradicting or off topic...</p>

<p>EKS. I'm pretty sure we didn't submit any "official" AP Scores, we just reported them...what I'm asking is if we need to send in our official scores before May 10th to opt out of taking the writing exam or if they can just rely on the unofficial scores we already posted...if Amaratine's counselor was right I better get on that.</p>

<p>glass_eyes: If your official SAT scores have not been sent, and they only have the scores reported on your application, I think it's best if you send them the official report. </p>

<p>B1rdm4n: You're welcome! I'll be sending mine in the next day or two. It's always better to be safe. =)</p>

<p>I think we were required to send our score reports from AP and SAT and ACT testing when we applied. Or at least I did...</p>

<p>I didn't send AP. I'm just going to send it to my school when I take my two exams next month, as by then I'll have SIR'd a school and can send it to them.</p>

<p>Yes, we are required to send them. </p>

<p>"If you passed any Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate exams you must have official results sent to UCLA by the testing agency to receive credit. </p>

<p>You can verify the scores that UCLA has on record for you using MyUCLA.</p>

<p>Provided we receive your official results, credit from these exams should appear on your record some time during your first term at UCLA."</p>

<p>And since it takes awhile to process, my counselor suggests sending it in ASAP. If you send it after you've taken your AP tests for your senior year, it will be too late to skip out on the writing examination. So you'll be sending it twice. One before the tests, and one after.</p>

<p>^ so if you didn't take the AP English test yet, but have other tests passed and have tests you are taking this year, it is best just to wait till after?</p>

<p>I know on the ap test they say they can send it to one institution of your choice. If i put UCLA for my senior year one, will all my scores throughout highschool be sent (and in time)?</p>

<p>Yes, if you're not planning to use your AP scores to exempt you from the Writing Exam then to save money, it'd be best to send the scores after you've taken your tests. And yes, all scores will be sent on time. </p>

<p>For those who can skip out on the writing exam:</p>

<p>"If you have any of the above scores/grades (and you have not already done so), please send us your official records. </p>

<p>If you have not met the requirement, you should plan to take the UC Analytical Writing Placement exam (AWPE). The AWPE will be offered at various California locations on May 10, 2008. In early April, all incoming California freshmen who have not satisfied the Entry Level Writing Requirement will receive an e-mail or letter directing them to the testing center where they can take the May 10 exam. </p>

<p>If you are not able to take the AWPE on May 10, you can take it at UCLA in the fall. But remember that without a passing AWPE score (or one of the other scores/grades mentioned above), you will not be able to take Freshman Composition or some other courses your first term at UCLA."</p>

<p>Is Freshmen composition required for GE's? I didn't see it listed under the GE requirements for the College of Letters and Science.</p>

<p>Awesome. I suck at writing, but my SAT and ACT scores do suffice and I won't have to wreck myself over such a silly writing test.</p>

<p>is it possible to just take the SAT writing section(senior year in may) and get a 680 or do they only count scores u reported?</p>
