Does AP matter?

<p>After finding out that I was admitted to Vanderbilt, I haven't been putting fourth the same effort as before. I still have no C's and have maintained a high GPA, but I haven't been studying for my AP exams at all. Without studying, I will probably pass 3 exams with scores of 4 or higher. But on the other 3, I'm probably getting 1's. Fortunately, I do not want to earn credit for these courses anyway. I took them to increase the rigor of my senior course load, rather than to earn college credit.</p>

<p>Thus, will Vanderbilt require me to send the scores for the 3 exams that I'm definitely not passing? Or can I report my AP scores separately and at my discretion.</p>

<p>Also, will the scores affect my admission status if they end up seeing them?</p>

<p>If you get a 1 on the AP exam, Vanderbilt will rescind your acceptance.</p>

<p>Just kidding, they won’t care. At this point, those AP scores are merely for your own benefit to get out of classes you don’t want to take.</p>

<p>i don’t think vanderbilt even has to see the scores, but i’m not certain of that.</p>
