<p>Indeed. Though AP exam scores don’t carry much weight, neither does that typo in the crux of your essay that killed the flow and mood. At elite schools, everything adds up, and everything is meaningful. Competition is insane.</p>
<p>Will it make a difference? Probably not. Could it? Possibly. Why would you take that risk?</p>
<p>Lorem, it’s nice to finally hear some confirmation about that one essay comment- I’ve been saying for a while that one tiny little detail in an application or in an essay can throw an admission officer in or out of your favor. It’s completely unpredictable and often might not make sense, but when candidates are so highly qualified, subjective factors like that suddenly mean a lot more.</p>
<p>Anyways my point about taking the class and getting good grades being far more important than your AP score still stands.</p>
