<p>Hi, I'm a junior and so far I haven't taken any AP classes. My school only offers 7 and the classes accept a very limited amount of people. I applied for an AP class this year, but i was rejected. I'm planning on taking 2 or 3 AP classes next year(senior). The question I'm wondering is if I study for the AP physics B exam for the May exam will it improve my chances of getting into good colleges. On the other hand, I have many things to worry about for example: SAT and SAT physics, ush, and MATH II. Will it be a good investment of my time or should I spend more time on the SAT and SAT subject tests?</p>
<p>help please</p>
<p>Invest your time in SAT’s and SAT’s. They matter more than AP tests. Since your school does not offer a lot of AP’s colleges will understand why you don’t have so many on your transcript.</p>
<p>SAT II’s *</p>
<p>thank you for helping me</p>
<p>AP tests are generally more difficult than Subject tests and they are only self-reported on college apps, you don’t have to send score reports like with SATs. While I believe that AP scores are considered in college admissions, I think that SAT/ACT/Subject tests are much more important to do well on.</p>
<p>Also, many colleges require Subject tests, but none require APs. I think your time is better spent concentrating on your SAT and Subject tests.</p>
<p>thank you for the advice</p>
