<p>Do we send in the AP scores now just for application? or we'll only send them to the school that has offered the admission?</p>
<p>No, you list your AP scores on the application itself, and if you are offered admission and accept, you <em>THEN</em> send your scores officially, for confirmation and use in class placement for freshman year.</p>
<p>thank you, i'm just a bit confused.</p>
<p>Oy crappers! I've been sending in AP Scores(fresh and soph years) to MIT, Caltech, Stanford, and I think some other school(not sure). </p>
<p>Is this bad or good?</p>

neither. It's expensive.</p>
<p>It is expensive to send them to more than one school. However, most schools realize that scores sent by freshman, sophomores and juniors are sent there by mistake. I actually contacted someone and found this out, because I accidentally sent me junior AP's to MIT.</p>
<p>if you take APs your frosh and soph years, you might as well list a college to receive the one free score report (assuming you expect to do well). Why not? Never hurts to make them aware of you.</p>
<p>When you actually apply, you have the option of self-reporting AP scores. But you only have to pay for official scores to be sent to the college where you matriculate, and even then only if you want to get credit.</p>
<p>There might be some special circumstances where someone might chose to send official AP score reports as part of their app. My son did this, but it was because he took a lot of AP exams, with high scores on all of them, and he had only 5 official grades. The AP reports may not have been absolutely necessary, but we felt better offering all of the official documentation we could because of the lack of grades. He only applied to 4 colleges (and MIT already had the free report from junior year exams), so it wasn't very expensive.</p>
<p>Oh... looking at it now, I only sent to the free school MIT.</p>
