<p>I'm got all 5's on the four tests I took and have self reported them.
I know that sending AP scores is optional, but are there any advantages if I got all 5's?
I'm applying to Stanford, USC, Pomona, and a few UCs</p>
<p>Do the colleges want you to send them? Don’t send them unless they are asking for it somewhere.</p>
<p>You self-report AP scores, sending an official score with your application is not going to give you an advantage. You only need to send an official score report to the school where you matriculate.</p>
<p>Colleges do not require AP scores for admission and that also means they don’t require you to incur CB’s exoribitant fees for sending official AP reports to multiple colleges. Self-reporting is fine when you want them to know your scores. If you want to do more to prove you actually got those scores just make a copy of your AP score reports and mail them to the admissions offices with a letter requesting that those be included in your application file.</p>
<p>Thank you!!
also, I just sent my ACT and SAT scores to Stanford but didn’t receive any confirmation mail or anything from collegeboard. Does it show up on the sent history once they’ve sent it?</p>
