Are your teachers informed of YOUR scores?

<p>As in, does every AP teacher get a report of which student got which grade? I'd always thought that but I heard from a friend that it's an invasion of privacy and that in actuality each teacher only gets a breakdown of how many got 4's, 5's, etc.. Who to believe?</p>

<p>I was told, at S's high school, the teachers and counselors get a list from the college board of the student's name and score. It is not an invasion of privacy, at least at S's high school, where the school pays for the test.</p>

<p>As far as I've heard, they know who got what score.</p>

<p>I have never seen SAT scores from students - most will tell me if they did was and others will refuse. I do get all the reports on the standardize testing given by our school - as a tool to see strengths and weaknesses.</p>

<p>I know that the teachers at my school do get the scores from their classes.</p>

<p>at my school, the ap coordinator makes a list of all the ap scores, with one side of a page having the breakdown of 1s, 2s, 3s, 4s, and 5s, and the other side listing the students who took it in alphabetical order, lists their score, and then does this for each exam.</p>

<p>Interesting. Our teachers say they do not get to see who got what on the AP tests. They supposedly get a list of scores, breaking down how many people got 5's, 4's, etc., but they don't know which student got what score. We have to tell them what we got.</p>

<p>The schools should have received their lists by now. Whether the administrators decide to share individual information with teachers (as in Susie made a 5, as opposed to you had 8 students score 5, 13 students score 4, etc), that is their call. Some of my daughter's teachers called her to congratulate her on her score, most didn't.</p>

<p>Our teachers get our scores. I don't know if they get every student's specific score but they do get a breakdown of the number of 5s, 4s, etc.</p>

<p>In addition to the college/s you specify as receipients, your high school also receives a copy of your AP scores. I don't know if teachers know who received what score, but in most of the AP orientation sessions, the AP teachers at our school share how their previous year's AP class performed as a whole on the exams.</p>

<p>i think they know who got what score at my school. we have a policy of raising grades depending on how you score on the AP exam so it would make sense for the teachers to receive individual scores.</p>

<p>At my school they definitely show which students get what scores. I distinctly remember my English teacher, who loves to gossip, being really excited to talk to everyone about who got what scores. Other teachers of mine would tell me "congratulations!" on my 5s.</p>

<p>At my wife's public high school the College Board sends the scores to the guidance department. The guidance counselor who serves as AP coordinator then shares the scores with the teachers -- or at least they should. I say this because the guidance counselor does not necessarily have enough information about all of the students taking the AP course to know if the score received was an anomaly requiring further investigation and possible rescoring. </p>

<p>Case in point, two of my wife's top students received 1s on the recent AP USHistory exam. Both students scored consistently in the 4 range in practice tests of the FRQ/DBQ, aced the NYS USH Regents exams and felt they had done well on the AP test. My wife advised the students to request a rescore. If she had not been made aware of how her students did the GC/AP coordinator may or may not have suggested they seek a rescore. </p>

<p>Now maybe those two students choked on the exam and the 1 was accurate. But unless they request a rescore they'll never know.</p>

<p>My teachers know their students scores cuz I usually ask how many people get 5s and stuff and who and they usually know.
It does get sent to guidance first because teachers usually get them at the start of school.</p>

<p>i'm not sure how my school does it...</p>

<p>Yeah. They do. I wish they didn't though. I do think it's invasion of privacy.</p>

<p>They do. My Calculus teacher actually called me to say congradulations.</p>

<p>@hudsonvalley - those kids should definitely get their tests rescored.</p>

<p>At my school, the teachers get to see our exam scores, but they don't pay for us to take the exams. So I got to fork out 400 bucks this year for my exams :[</p>

<p>I don't think that teachers at my school do, because my biology teacher asked us seniors to email her our scores.</p>

<p>teachers at my school get our AP scores in the beginning of the school year. i know this because the teachers always talk about who got 5's. and i think they also get a report of what sections their students missed the most or something...
even though my teachers get our scores, they still asked us to email them during the summer.</p>
