<p>Would state colleges think my scores are good or bad?
I want them to give me at least a slight boost at admissions chances.</p>

2

<p>State colleges would like those. I think those might even be likable by some Ivy schools.</p>

3

<p>I think any state college will be truly impressed by your AP scores. In fact, I'm sure that you'll not only manage to impress your admissions officers but get enough pre-matriculation credit to graduate in 3 years with your scores (I'm not kidding; check your college's AP credit policy page). Although it looks to me like you went for quantity instead of quality in 2006, your AP records will definitely be WELL above average in any state college's applicant pool nonetheless.</p>

4

<p>The 2 is very dissapointing.</p>

5

<p>do you think my 4s and 5s makeup for the 2 and the few 3s?</p>

6

<p>goodcontent your scores are good. </p>

<p>I only have 5,5,5,5,5,5,4,4,4,4,4,4,3,late </p>

<p>yours are not much different from mine and i think mine are ok. The 2 is the only real problem.</p>

7

<p>i agree with e, you would have been better off studying less APs and getting higher scores. However, a bunch of 4s arent necessarily bad. Good Job! I hope you didnt have to sacrifice too much of your social life to study.</p>

8

<p>and yeah in addition I wouldnt worry about it. If you were a senior it doesnt matter.</p>

9

<p>im a rising senior</p>

10

<p>Don't submit your 2s. It's that simple. If you're applying to a prestigious school, don't include the 3s.</p>

11

<p>well... if you are a rising senior then those scores are fantastic. At least you know you will be guaranteed state scholar next year.</p>

12

<p>az, all of the scores come on the same report. He has to submit them if hes submitting the others.</p>

13

<p>im happy with my 4,3,2,??... as long as im AP scholar, it's all good (the ?? is my late us govt... i know i passed it, just cause thats my intended major...)</p>

14

<p>u can withhold.. but for admissions, colleges dont tend to ask for the official report until u are accepted..</p>

<p>do i have any chance for State AP Scholar this yr?? (15 exams.. around 3.9 average)</p>

15

<p>cancelling cancels the grade but it still shows up on the report that you cancelled the grade.</p>

16

<p>They certainly aren't bad. They don't mean **** in admissions anyway</p>

17

<p>Whats wrong with you people? Why would you self-study THAT many tests.
Either way those scores are great regardless of what people here say. These people make it seem like AP scores actually matter for admission (they dont, unless its like top 10 school) and that getting a 2 or 3 automatically hurts your chances greatly. I know at least teh UC system does NOT care about your AP scores and that it plays a tiny to no role in admissions.</p>

18

<p>UCs probably have the most conservative method of selecting students for admission in the nation..
other schools will prob. look at the AP exams..</p>

<p>I am applying to: UNC,NCSU,and Stevens Institute of Technology.
I am concentrating in Math+Engineering.
What do you think these colleges will say about my scores?</p>

19

<p>Seriously, they REALLY don't care that much. Your average is about a 4? It will not hurt you one bit, but its not going to help you get in either</p>

20

<p>i think they would matter just a bit cause it showed that i independent studied (which is a skill colleges like)</p>
