<p>Honors and AP classes are always helpful. And the fact that you’re in NHS is important too. I’m pretty sure the admissions people don’t care what you get on the AP exams, the scores only matter if you’re admitted and using the earned credits to be exempt from certain classes. Good luck! :)</p>

<p>I think you have a chance… bummer that only your AP US grade of 4 will actually transfer into credit at UMCP. Good Luck!</p>
