<p>You don’t have to report your AP scores. AP scores can only help you, not hurt you.</p>

<p>Well my school’s counselor told me to report everything I have. Is it really a better idea to not report my AP scores? </p>

<p>GPA and SAT are kind of low imo, but if you show a lot of demonstrated interest in the school because, as you said, you really want to get in, I think you have a shot. Really depends on which school you’re applying to; an English major would probably be CAS (correct me if I’m wrong, I only really hear things about Stern). Your ECs are great and they show commitment which is always a plus. Good luck!</p>
