<p>If I'm applying to schools like MIT and Stanford, should I send AP scores of 4s or just the ones with 5.</p>
<p>What about schools like UC Berkeley or Carnegie Mellon then?</p>

<p>I am probably misunderstanding your question, but isn’t it too late to cancel/withhold scores?</p>
<p>[AP</a> Scores - AP Scores & Reporting Services](<a href=“College Board - SAT, AP, College Search and Admission Tools”>View Your AP Scores – AP Students | College Board)</p>
<p>OP likely means self-report on application, not send score report.</p>
<p>When my S & D were applying there were two universities - CMU and one that I don’t remember - that specifically said they don’t look at the actual AP score (much to our disappointment - they had lots of 5s), rather they used it to judge how difficult a schedule the student took. We thought it was odd because a 5 in Calc BC, to us seemed to be a better indicator of the student’s ability than a high score in the SAT I or II math, but that’s how it was. More than once we were told that once the student was accepted, the score mattered with respect to course scheduling.</p>
<p>You may want to check with the admissions office to see how they view the APs before you decide to have a transcript sent.</p>
<p>Ok thanks Dad of 3
but anyone sure of what I should do?</p>
<p>for say, mit, if you have the room, put it on. hey, its a 4, some people would kill for a 4, and either way its not gonna make a world of difference (since if you were gonna get in, why would getting a 4 change that)</p>
<p>for ALL ucs, they specifically state that any passing ap score goes to your credit, so id suggest putting it there too.</p>
<p>If you don’t report an AP score for a class you took, then the usual assumption will be that you never took the test. Getting a 4 isn’t incredible, but it’s a lot better than getting no score at all. Besides, AP test scores aren’t even considered that highly for admission at most colleges, so it can’t hurt you very much at all.</p>
