Calculus BC AP Score

<p>Hey Guys,</p>

<p>Just wanted some insight as to what I should do. </p>

<p>I took the AP Calc BC exam last year and got a 4 on the BC part and a 5 on AB subscore.</p>

<p>Apart from this score, I am a stellar math student (800 SAT II, and numerous national mathematics awards, and probably top 1% in school). Should I retake this test for the 5. (This would mean having to review the entire BC material again.) </p>

<p>Currently I am a junior and am taking Calculus D/Linear Algebra, so studying BC over again would be very inconvenient. </p>

<p>How bad does this look on my app?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>Really, it doesn’t look bad at all. Few colleges put that much consideration into your AP scores, and a less than perfect score in one is unlikely to hurt you very much.</p>

<p>you’re a junior taking linear algebra… i doubt they’ll quibble of a 4 on the BC exam.</p>

<p>I didn’t even know they had a Calculus D in high school. What’s freakin next…E and F?</p>

<p>I’m just as lost as you are bro. </p>

<p>And also, man, I wouldn’t bother re-taking the BC exam. You’re in freakin Calculus D—only a select few are able to do that in the public school system today, which makes up the majority of the student body in the U.S. So, don’t sweat.</p>

<p>What the hell is a Calculus D?</p>

<p>Is Calculus Z like super ultra Cambridge math??</p>
