<p>It's in 11 days and I KNOW I'm so not ready. I'm not the best in language arts and my teacher hasn't done much to help us prepare. I already paid for it, but can I not take it and get a refund? </p>
<p>And if I don't take it, will colleges look at it as a bad thing?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>From Collegeboard. So it sounds like you can until the day of the exam, and I doubt colleges would ever find out</p>
<p>I heard that if colleges find out that a person didn’t take their AP exam, they are gnna count the AP class as a regular one? Wouldn’t that lower the GPA?</p>
<p>No. It doesn’t look good if you don’t take the exam, but it won’t lower your GPA.</p>

<p>My high school gives you credit for taking an honors course instead of an AP course if you don’t take the exam, but I would imagine that the policy varies by school. I doubt that colleges would recalculate GPA though, seeing as some schools don’t even ask for AP scores on the application</p>
<p>Idk if I should take it or not. I really suck at lang and comp, and it seems impossible to improve significantly in 10 days. It’s a waste of money and time, but should I do it since colleges at least want me to try? I really don’t know what to doo!</p>
